Quercus velutina

Black oak is a common, medium-sized to large oak of the eastern and midwestern United States. It is sometimes called yellow oak, quercitron, yellowbark oak, or smooth bark oak.

As the Chinese proverb goes, "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now." This little seedling will ultimately grow to 80 -100' tall with aaa average life span of up to 200 years. A medium grower, you can enjoy nurturing it and transferring to sequentially larger pots before transferring outdoors. As a deciduous tree it wil change color and drop their leaves in the fall and leaf out with dark-green foliage in early and mid-summer. In forest stands, black oak begins to produce seeds at about age 20 and reaches optimum production at 40 to 75 years. It is a consistent seed producer with good crops of acorns every 2 to 3 years.

Full Sun / Partial Shade / Cold Hardiness  to -40º 

Kokedamas are an ancient form of Japanese Bonsai that dates to around 1600 AD. These living planters are made with natural moss, soil, twine, and a plant. They have a sunny disposition and are low maintenance.

They also pair well with our Wrought Iron Planter Stand in Small, the Tall Goblet Terra Cotta Planter or the Jikoku Wood Base, both sold separately.
