Post 10 – Oak
The English oak is, perhaps, our most recognised tree,
often considered a national emblem: the one for which
almost every child and adult can draw the lobed leaf, or
describe its acorn fruits. Oaks do not produce acorns
until they are about 40 years old and can continue to
great ages. A widespread tree, it is prized for its wood
and was for centuries associated with ship-building.
