Quercus pubescens
Striking characters, a distinctive almost corky bark and a slightly smaller leaf than many other oaks. Quercus pubescens (downy oak) is a fantastic species that brings with it an atmosphere of its own.
It is a somewhat slower grower but can grow into a large tree depending on conditions. Its late autumn colouring goes from warm golden yellow to brown. They often retain their brown leaves for a long time in winter.
CAREFULLY, THIS QUERCUS PUBESCENS IS ESCORTED TO ITS NEW LOCATION.
