Quercus robur
Common Name: English Oak
English oak (Quercus robur) develops a broad, rounded crown above a sturdy trunk. Small leaves have rounded lobes, and stalked acorns add detail in autumn.
Its structure combines an oval crown and a rounded outline. Growth is moderate. The leaves are shed for winter. Autumn foliage can bring brown and yellow tones.
Choose a sunny, open site. Provide humus-rich, well-drained soil and maintain even moisture.
