It typically matures to 50-60' tall and to 10- 20' wide. Leaves remain green throughout the growing season with little fall color. Quercus robur, commonly called English oak, is native to mixed woodland areas from the British Isles to the Caucasus. It has been widely planted in North America since the 1600s. It is a large, majestic, deciduous oak of the white oak group that typically grows in cultivation to 40-70’ (less frequently 100’) tall with a broad-spreading, rounded crown. Trunks are typically short, with ridged and furrowed dark gray to black bark. Insignificant monoecious yellowish-green flowers in separate male and female catkins appear in spring as the leaves emerge. Fruits are oval acorns (to 1” long) on 1-3” long stalks. Acorn caps extend approximately 1/3 the acorn length. Acorns are an important source of food for wildlife. Short-stalked, dark green leaves (3-5” long) with 3-7 blunt lobes per side are blue-green beneath. Small auriculate lobes at the leaf bases distinguish this species from the similar American species of white oak (Quercus alba).

Order now for delivery from November English Oak (Quercus robur) Value For Wildlife Oaks support more fauna than any other trees in the UK. Of the 284 insect species they include, in their canopy, the glorious Purple Hairstreak. It's said an English Oak will lose half its leaves to insects in a normal year. They are, consequently, a magnet for predators like bats. Oak trees have more galls than any other British tree too, including oak apples, and many fungi. According the the Woodland Trust, a 400 year old oak can support 2,000 different types of birds (and bats!), lichen and fungi. Wow! It also produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year (how on earth is this measured /calculated?!). Its masses of acorns used to be very helpful feed for pigs as well, under the rules of pannage, and continue to be for a host of small mammals. There's a contract between the tree and some animals; squirrels and jays in particular bury acorns to store them and, inevitably, lose a fair few! History In Britain Oak wood has, of course, been used for a vast array of products - ships, barrels, buildings - since time immemorial, and it was widely planted for its timber in the 18th and early 19th centuries. The Oak woods in the Forest of Deane are the equivalent of an abandoned munitions factory, originally planted to provide the Royal Navy with "walls of oak" for men-of-war before the ironclad. An estimated 6,000 oak trees were used to build HMS Victory, for example. It is the supreme native hardwood; the tree's cultural, ecological, and economic significance give it a unique place in our past. Long before Charles II hid in one, they had a special place in British history, personifying strength, permanence and utility. Although they come in many shapes and sizes, ancient stag headed oak trees up to 1000 years old are immediately recognisable landmarks across the country. Left to their own devices, the vast branches of ancient oaks sweep low and long over the ground around them. They are sun loving trees, and need space to spread. Hereabouts they are dotted around a landscape of wood pasture. English oak is also known as Pedunculate oak, as distinct from the Sessile oak, Quercus Petraea (also native). It's usually the Pedunculate oak you see in Medieval church carvings, as the pre-eminent tree in English and Welsh woodlands. The future of our oaks is uncertain. Although they are relatively drought resistant, there are nasties out there which present real challenges. Oak mildew from the U.S. means that seedlings are now only regenerating on open ground, for example, so there numbers in woodland are falling.
