Oak leafs

The oak tree is unique as a deciduous tree in that most varieties are marcescent, meaning they do not shed their leaves in the fall like most leafy trees, but hold them until spring.

    The oak is a very special tree of great beauty with wood that is hard, workable, and with great character. Thanks for the post.

    Beech hedges are favoured because they do the same.
