The Bur oak is an impressive giant of a tree, boasting a towering height and expansive spread ranging from 70 ft. to 90 ft. With its majestic crown, robust trunk and sturdy branches, it commands attention in any landscape. An outstanding example in Philadelphia stands as a testament, measuring a remarkable 7 ft. high and over 90 ft. spread. Its bark exhibits a unique range of light brown to grey tones, with deep furrows gracing the mature trees, while young stems feature corky ridges, imparting a stout appearance. Notably, its acorns are generously sized, almost entirely covered by a furry, bur-like cap, necessitating a substantial cleanup effort in well-maintained landscapes. In its youth, the Bur oak presents an attractive, symmetrical and dense crown, making it an excellent choice for street tree planting. This versatile tree thrives in various challenging conditions, demonstrating salt tolerance, resilience in poor soils and the ability to withstand urban pollution. Architects favor it for its consistent crown shape, ensuring uniformity in urban landscapes. With impressive cold hardiness, the Bur oak flourishes in USDA Zones 3 to 8, making it a robust and reliable addition to your outdoor environment. Experience the grandeur of the Bur oak and elevate your landscape with its commanding presence.
