The Classic English oak found in most NZ parks, gardens and some wild areas. It is a broad, spreading, very long-lived, slow growing tree. Produces useable timber and edible Acorns. Acorns must be processed using water over some days to extract the tannins to make them palatable to humans. Stock like to eat the acorns. Very hardy tree that will tolerate a range of soils including heavy clay soils and exposed sites.
