| The nuts all came from a type of Castanopsis, or chinkapin tree, modern representatives of which are found in Northwest United States and Asia today. |
|
| Other white oaks include swamp white oak,, chestnut oak, bur oak, swamp chestnut oak, chinkapin oak, overcup oak and post oak. |
|
| Bur, chinkapin and Shumard oaks, blue ash and kingnut are all long-lived trees that have been here for hundreds of years. |
|
| Sawtooth and dwarf chinkapin oaks can begin producing acorns in as little as 5 years. |
|
| Some of the best drought-tolerant trees are bur oak, Texas red oak, Texas ash, cedar elm, Eve's necklace, chinkapin oak, and Lacey oak. |
|
| You may already know oak, maple, fir and pine, which are all included, but can you spot a golden chinkapin willow, or a redbud, or a sycamore from a mile away? |

| Trainer Mike Mitchell, who won Fairplex Park's Pomona Handicap with Chinkapin in 2003, goes for a repeat with Hotel Hall and I Pea Oh in Sunday's race. |
