Description: An oak of true grandeur! This beauty can reach more than 80 feet tall and 40 feet wide. It can grow in bottomlands on slopes and upland forests. Its acorns are a great food source. The wood is strong and somewhat rot resistant. It looks good by itself in a field or in the forest. You can't go wrong with this tree! |
