    This is awesome! I didn't know there was a way to harvest wood without killing the tree-- very cool!

    Love oak trees! They are so iconic to the English landscape. My second favourite is the Beech tree.

      In that case then here's an interesting fact and that is did you know that in the olden days the Oak and Beech were seen as the king and queen of all British trees.

      @@alexcrockett5665 I live in Leeds, West Yorkshire and Ash is probably the most numerous tree around these parts. Ash die back is a big worry but not seen it here yet. My 3rd favourite tree is the Weeping willow, so majestic when mature 😀

    Theres two different native ''english'' oaks- sessile and robur however telling them apart is not always easy and to make it harder they cross pollinate and hybridise. They grow all over Britain and can easily reach 30m some much taller :)

    Shame we are struggling to plant more oaks these days with the oak processionary moth (OPM) problem. Hopefully the restrictions will soon be slackened and we get back to planting the mighty oak in our public green spaces.

    I bought a young whip but I can't figure out where to put it. Not sure exactly how much space I need and minimum distance form things like power lines, other trees, etc.

    • @LeaveCurious
      @LeaveCurious  3 роки тому

      i'd give it as much space as possible. although oaks grow slowly, they'll grow very tall with a broad canopy. they also have a high water demand, so worthing bearing in mind if planting near buildings.

    Is it possible to grow English Oak at a temperature of 20 - 30 degree Celsius

    • @LeaveCurious

      Yes most certainly, they very much enjoy the sunlight! Just ensure its well watered and sheltered from the wind 🌿

      i think it might have been lichen growth. but be certain without going back to the tree again!

      I’m not sure to be honest, I’d say at least 200 years if not double that.
