New foliage emerges with a reddish tint before maturing to deep green, then shifts to rich russet and red tones in fall, making it a striking specimen for larger yards, parks, and naturalistic plantings.\u003cbr\u003e\nOften used as a shade tree, a landscape focal point, or part of a mixed deciduous planting, it also supports wildlife and produces acorns that feed birds and small mammals where allowed. Its straight trunk, sturdy branching, and spreading crown give it a strong, enduring structure over time. It performs best in deep, well-drained soil and makes a rewarding long-term planting for those with space to accommodate its mature size.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Quercus rubra\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Northern Red Oak\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Deciduous tree\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright, rounded, spreading canopy\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Well-drained, loamy, slightly acidic to neutral\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 3-8\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 30-40 feet apart\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Plant in a permanent location with room for a large mature canopy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67663614410888,"sku":"BTR-069","price":38.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_f0ede4ae-da12-40a4-bca5-e87ce74f3876.png?v=1791897302","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/1-bare-root-northern-red-oak-tree-12-quercus-rubra-shade-tree","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
