Stave oak
Quercus alba
The White Oak is a majestic, long-lived native North American tree that provides exceptional wildlife value through its acorn production and broad canopy habitat. Plant it in full sun to partial shade in deep, well-drained acidic soil, and water regularly during its first few years until fully established. Once mature, it requires virtually no supplemental care and can live for centuries, making it a true legacy landscape tree.
