PEDUNCULATE OAK

The pedunculate oak (Quercus robur) or common oak is a large deciduous tree of the family Fagaceae with a short trunk from which large branches arise to form a massive, round-topped crown. The brownish-grey bark is smooth at first, and later deeply fissured. The leaves are alternate, leathery, dark- green in colour, lobed and have auricles at the base.
