A fully hardy tree growing best in full sun or some shade in deep well-drained fertile soil, it will tolerate lime soil. A deciduous round headed tree, slow growing reaching an approximate height in maturity of 15m x 8m / 50ft x 27ft.
Oaks are the tree most associated with England, involved with so much of our history. Oaks offer shelter for birds and wildlife. When young, they should be well staked and benefit from a spring weed, mulch and compost.
