White Oak Tree Overview

White Oak tree (Quercus Alba) is native to eastern and central North America. The tree is large and straight and at maturity can reach up to 90 feet! If you’re looking for a long-lived tree then you’d be happy to learn that White Oak trees can live for 200-300 years! In fact, some estimate that the Great White Oak located in Basking Ridge, New Jersey was 600 years old. While it is called white oak, the bark is usually light grey. In fact, the name refers to the color of the finished wood. Moreover, it is a very valuable hardwood tree.

White Oak trees grow in rounded shape.The bark is light gray and scaly. The leaves are green but turn a beautiful red and orange color in the fall. These trees flower from April to May and fruit from September to October. Their acorns are small but are a valuable source of food for wildlife, notably for turkeys, wood ducks, pheasants, grackles, jays, nuthatches, thrushes, woodpeckers, rabbits, squirrels, and deer.

Although it is adaptable to different soil environments and textures, it grows particularly well in acidic, deep, moist well-drained soils. Because it has a deep tap root, it can be difficult to transplant the trees.
