Quercus macrocarpa, also known as the bur oak or burr oak, is a species of oak tree native to eastern North America. It is a member of the white oak section and is also called mossycup oak, mossycup white oak, blue oak, or scrub oak. The tree is known for its large acorns, which are an important food source for wildlife. It can grow up to 30 meters in height and has a slow growth rate. The leaves are lobed and the flowers are greenish-yellow catkins. The wood is commercially valuable and the acorns can be eaten. The bur oak is also important in Native American culture, with its bark being used for medicinal purposes. Many places, including parks and cities, are named after this tree.

Germination/Propagation Top

Suggest a correction or add new data!
Alternate between 4°C and 20°C for 3 months each, over several cycles, with an extended germination period.
Sow seeds immediately as their viability decreases rapidly, or they best germinate when fresh. If stored, seeds might need temperature cycling and patience to germinate.
