Description
The Red Oak Tree (Quercus rubra) is a large deciduous tree with a thick trunk and dark gray bark with longitudinal cracks on the surface. The leaves are dark green, palm-shaped, serrated on the edges, and turn bright red or orange in autumn, which is very beautiful. The fruit of the red oak is acorns, which are brown when ripe and have a hard shell. Although the acorns themselves are bitter and cannot be eaten directly, they can be made into food after processing. The red oak wood is tough and widely used in areas such as construction, furniture and flooring. In addition, red oaks are also often used in garden landscaping to provide a cool and beautiful environment.
