Southern Red Oak

Southern Red Oak is native to the eastern and south-central U.S., and Quercus falcata (botanical name) is a medium to large tree featuring a wide spreading canopy that provides plenty of shade during those bright and warm months. Red Oak is the type of tree that brings plenty of beauty and interest to any landscape too, without having to do too much for them to thrive! They can adapt and grow fast without a lot of attention and care! The entire family is going to love this tree, especially a larger one, whether as the perfect shade tree for a family picnic or tying a swing or a pinata to the sturdy branches! If you love the change of seasonal color, this is also the tree for you. The glossy green leaves transform to a vibrant red or yellow during the fall, creating a picturesque landscape scene that is sure to add plenty of curbside appeal!
