A resilient tree that is adaptable to various soil conditions. This tree does well in urban settings. Slow growing (less than 12" per year). The acorns of the bur oak are quite large: 1.5 inches wide. A great tree that will last hundreds of years in favorable settings. Regular Bur Oak is not recommended for parking lots due to their large acorn size. For a much smaller acorn sized variety of the bur oak, check out the 'Urban Pinnacle' Bur Oak. Features: wildlife. Full sun. Wet soil tolerant. Approved Cultivars include 'Urban Pinnacle,' which is narrower. |
