Description: The Bur Oak is a Michigan native oak that has a stately silhouette all year long. It is one of the best-looking oaks in the winter due to the light gray, rough textured bark and open crown. The trunk is straight with main branches well-attached to the tree making this a long-lived, durable tree for large wide-open landscapes. In some areas Bur Oak can reach heights of 100 feet and widths of 80 feet.
