Quercus rubra (Northern Red Oak)
Native range, habitat, associated forest cover, supporting soils, and detailed
facts on life history.
Moderate to fast growing, this tree is one of the more important lumber species of red oak and is an easily transplanted, popular shade tree with good form and dense foliage
Associated Forest Cover Northern Red Oak (Society of American Foresters Type 55) is the forest cover type that includes pure stands of this tree or stands in which it is predominant (6)
Northern red oak is listed as an associated species in the following forest types: 17 Pin Cherry 18 Paper Birch 19 Gray Birch-Red Maple 21 Eastern White Pine 22 White Pine-Hemlock 23 Eastern Hemlock 25 Sugar Maple-Beech-Yellow Birch 26 Sugar Maple-Basswood 27 Sugar Maple 28 Black Cherry-Maple 40 Post Oak-Blackjack 42 Bur Oak 43 Bear Oak 44 Chestnut Oak 45 Pitch Pine 46 Eastern Redcedar 51 White Pine-Chestnut Oak 53 White Oak 57 Yellow-Poplar 58 Yellow-Poplar-Eastern Hemlock 60 Beech-Sugar Maple 82 Loblolly Pine-Hardwood 108 Red Maple 110 Black Oak Numerous other tree species are associated with northern red oak
Some of the more important small trees associated with northern red oak include flowering dogwood (Cornus florida), sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), American holly (Ilex opaca), eastern hophornbeam (Ostrya virginiana), American hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana), redbud (Cercis canadensis), pawpaw (Asimina triloba), sassafras (Sassafras albidum), persimmon (Diospyros virginiana), American bladdernut (Staphylea trifolia), and downy serviceberry (Amelanchier arborea)
Quercus macrocarpa (Bur Oak)
Habitat, native range, associated forest cover, and detailed facts on reproduction
and growth. Discusses human uses and genetics.
In the west, it is a pioneer tree invading prairie grasslands, and it is planted frequently in shelterbelts
The comparative ease with which bur oak can be grown makes it a fine tree for streets or lawns
Along adjacent draws and upper slopes, it becomes the first tree established along prairie edges
Bluffs along the Missouri River and its tributaries in eastern Nebraska are frequently covered with bur oaks that range in size from small trees near the base of bluffs to shrublike growth near the top
Here, it ranges in size from a shrub under a pine canopy at higher elevations to a tree up to 21 m (69 ft) tall along stream bottoms at lower elevations
Associated Forest Cover Because of its tolerance to a wide range of soil and moisture conditions, bur oak is an associate of many other trees
Bur oak is also the major tree of oak savannas ("oak openings") of the prairie-forest transition zone in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Illinois (3, 5, 8, 12)
Pollen from one tree appears to germinate better on the stigmas of another, favoring cross pollination
Seed Production and Dissemination- The acorns ripen within the year and drop from the tree as early as August or as late as November

Holly Oak (Quercus ilex LINN.) Click on graphic for larger image The Common, or British Oak, for many centuries the chief forest tree of England, is intimately bound up with the history of these islands from Druid times
The wood of these trees when stained green by the growth of a peculiar fungus known as Peziza oeriginosa is much valued by cabinet-makers
In eighty years the trunk is said not to exceed 20 inches in diameter, but old trees reach a great girth
These large trees are for the most part decayed and hollow in the interior, and their age has been estimated at from one to two thousand years
Coccifera , the prickly evergreen or Kermes Oak, a native of the countries bordering on the Mediterranean; the insect ( coccus ) from which it derives its name yielding the dye known as 'Turkey red.' Abram's Oak is 22 feet in circumference; it is popularly supposed to represent the spot where the tree grew under which Abraham pitched his tent
The following is a quotation from Withers: 'That every man might keep his own possessions, Our fathers used, in reverent processions, With zealous prayers, and with praiseful cheere, To walk their parish limits once a year; And well-known marks (which sacrilegious hands Now cut or breake) so bordered out their lands, That every one distinctly knew his owne, And brawles now rife were then unknowne.' The ceremony was performed by the clergyman and his parishioners going the boundaries of the parish and choosing the most remarkable sites (oak-trees being specially selected) to read passages from the Gospels, and ask blessings for the people

Early summer droughts are bad for trees, especially newly planted saplings that lack an adequate root system
By using limited water resources to keep trees healthy, survival and growth in the following years is more likely
Trees that lose leaves and fine roots in early summer may not fully recover and are more susceptible to future stresses
Chicago is also deploying fire boats along the waterfront and Chicago River to soak young trees
Up to 20 million trees will be removed over a 20 year period
In conifers, unfertilized ovules become empty seeds, and the tree puts no resources into empty seeds
Instead of depending on the tree to supply resources to a fertilized see, Megastigmus manipulates seed development to its own advantages
Buckeyes are uniquely toxic among temperate trees

The leaves remain on the tree throughout the year so the tree appears to be evergreen
Often covered with Spanish moss, it is one of the most majestic trees of southern coastal areas
Because they can tolerate salt spray, the trees usually dominate edges of salt marshes and other well drained coastal areas
To ensure a future supply of the valuable live oak, the United States Government reserved thousands of acres of southern woodlands to protect the trees from timber interests
President John Quincy Adams authorized the establishment of a federal tree farm in the Naval Live Oaks Area on January 18, 1829
Superintendent Henry Marie Brackenridge, who lived on the tree farm, experimented with cultivating the live oak tree

Quercus virginiana (Live Oak)
Physical description, habitat, range, life history, population biology, physical
tolerances, and community ecology.
Those closest to scrub areas tend to be low-growing shrubs, while those further upland grow as large, spreading, long-lived trees which dominate the canopy
Trees growing in the open reach 15 m (approximately 50 feet) in height, with trunks of approximately 200 cm (79 inches)
Crowns of these trees may reach a span of 46 m (150 feet) or more (Harlow et al
Seedlings may reach 1.2 m (4 feet) in height within the first year, but growth rates taper off as age of the tree increases (Harlow et al 1979; Haller 1992)
70 year old trees may have trunks that measure as much as 54 inches in diameter (Van Dersal 1938)
Heartwood decay is able to infect trees, but typically, the sapwood in live oak is so strong that infected trees often remain standing (Harms 1990)
Additionally, gall wasps may also colonize live oak, but apparently have little effect upon health of colonized trees (Haller 1992)
