3 Bare Root White Oak Trees Quercus alba 12 Inch Native Shade Tree
White Oak (Quercus alba) is a long-lived North American native shade tree valued for its broad, rounded crown and strong, sturdy branching. Its leaves turn deep red to reddish-brown in autumn, and the tree supports a wide range of wildlife with its acorns, making it a classic choice for spacious yards and natural landscapes.
This deciduous tree works well as a specimen, shade tree, or part of a mixed native planting in larger landscapes. It grows best in deep, well-drained soil and prefers full sun; young trees establish best with consistent moisture and benefit from a mulch ring around the base.
