SWAMP WHITE OAK
Quercus bicolor is commonly referred to as the Swamp White Oak. This native oak is a medium sized, long-lived deciduous tree with a broad, rounded crown and a short trunk. Wavy dark green foliage turns yellow to red in fall. Fruits are acorns that develop in a single season and ripen in early to mid-autumn, usually in pairs. Its bark is ridged and furrowed, giving off a light gray color.
The Swamp White Oak is drought tolerant once established and thrives in full sun in acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It is perhaps the most adaptable of all the oaks.
