RED OAK
Description
This native oak is a handsome shade tree that develops a broad, rounded growth habit when mature. It has a faster growth rate than other native oaks. Deep green, leathery leaves emerge pink in the spring, and turn red in the fall. It can tolerate drought, clay soils, and air pollution once established. Native oaks are an important larval food source for many butterfly species, and attract migratory birds.
