This is the classic oak, famed for its broad shape, deep-fissured bark, and characteristic acorns. Its lime-green leaves in spring mature into a dark-green color. The leaves turn yellow in autumn and persist into winter, making it an attractive tree year-round. It is ideal for parks, paddocks, lining avenues, and as a magnificent specimen tree.
