    Hi all - I'm trying to help my Mom identify the attached. It's a large leaf, approx. 8 1/2" long x 4" wide. The "lobing" is very subtle - just a slight wave to the edge. It's growing in Terre Haute, Indiana.

    Any ideas? I've exhausted most of the reference material I can find.

    Thanks! Diane in Oregon

    Perhaps a hybrid involving Quercus marilandica?

    Going by just the one leaf is too limiting.
