Red Oak - Quercus rubra
Wooster Planted: 1942
406 Oakley Site: Lawn

1971 Comments:
These large oaks are in excellent condition and have a broad pyramidal habit that provides excellent shade. The ultimate size of the tree is no problem since it is located in an open lawn area..

1997 Comments:
The planting was dominated by red oak. These trees have grown magnificently. The trees are about 36" in diameter. They have survived well and are a good match for the site. These plants are also excellent for a lawn planting.

 
Eighty-nine percent of the planting survived (16 of 18 trees).
1997 data represents three trees.
