The Bur Oak is a magnificent, rugged native, among the toughest and most adaptable of all oaks. Its massive, spreading canopy and deeply furrowed bark give it a commanding, ancient presence, and the large lobed leaves turn warm yellow-brown in fall. Extraordinarily long-lived, it withstands drought, wind, and tough soils, thriving where many trees fail. Plant it in full sun, where it becomes a true legacy tree for generations to come. As a keystone native, it supports abundant wildlife. For grandeur, toughness, and longevity, the Bur Oak is unrivaled.
