The Cork Oak (Quercus suber)
The cork oak (Quercus suber) is a tree native to Southern Europe. It is an evergreen oak that is commonly planted as an ornamental tree.
The cork oak often has playful branches and a beautiful trunk structure. As the name suggests, the bark of these trees is used to make corks for wine bottles.
The leaves are thick, leathery, and have a holly-like serrated edge for protection from being eaten.
The cork oak is quite winter-hardy and does not require protection from the weather.
In short: a beautiful evergreen tree that is a visual delight due to its trunk structure!
