About English Oak
This is the oak of the Druids and King Arthur's Round Table! Classified as a member of the white oak section, English Oak is native to a huge swath of territory in Europe and the Caucasus. It has a reputation for its wide circumference, and is indeed the thickest tree in all of Northern Europe. Also known as Truffle Oak or Pedunculate Oak, English Oak produces an excellent and highly sought-after wood for wine barrel making. A tough-as-nails tree.

Seedling Size Chart: Medium
Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.
