The English Oak Tree is a magnificent deciduous tree which as it matures will form a broad and spreading crown with sturdy branches beneath.
Oaks are not for the smaller spaces, reaching 30-40m tall at maturity and a canopy as broad as it is high.
English Oaks support more life than any other native tree species in the UK; even its fallen leaves support biodiversity.
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
We only sell potted trees as we have found these have the best chance of survival in most situations, allowing you to plant trees throughout the year.
The cooler, wetter months are always the best time to plant a tree and allow it to establish a new root system whilst it remains fairly dormant. Potted trees can also be planted successfully throughout the spring and summer if they are well looked after.
We recommend mulching and regular watering during the drier periods in the first year or so of growth.
