Product details
Introduced in the late 1690s, the Quercus Suber, also known as Cork Oak, is native to Southern Europe and North Africa. In the UK, it is best suited to the warmer south due to its origins.
Until it gets beyond semi-mature it is often buoyed up by a thick bamboo cane by nurseries to support the weak stem.
Our advice is never accept one unless it is strong enough to support itself.
Widely grown in Spain and Portugal for the wine industry, it is resistant to British frosts.
It is a short-stemmed, wide rounded evergreen tree.
Its thick and craggy bark can provide outstanding interest in a garden, and it tends to thrive better on free draining soils.
Mature height: 7-12m
