White Oak vs Mountain MapleQuercus alba Acer spicatum NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON (we don't know if or when this product will be restocked) ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW 
White Oak is large, long-lived tree with an irregular trunk divided into spreading, often horizontal, stout branches. A highly adaptable tree, White Oak features green acorns and beautiful green leaves that turn red-purple in the fall.
Used to growing in the shadows of the damp forest, White Maple (aka Mountain Maple) is a great fit for shady and wet areas, such as beneath larger trees. Unlike most of its cousins, the White Maple is a shrub instead of a tree. It's still a maple, however, with sap that can be made into Maple syrup to prove it!
