Burr Oak
Burr oak (Quercus macrocarpa) is a large and majestic deciduous tree native to North America. It is renowned for its robust and wide-spreading canopy, with branches often extending horizontally and forming a broad crown. Burr oak leaves are deeply lobed and have a glossy dark green color that turns golden-brown in the fall. The tree produces acorns with a distinctive fringed cap, and these acorns are an important food source for wildlife. Burr oaks are well-suited to various soil types and are commonly planted in parks, open spaces, and along streets for their shade and aesthetic qualities.
