| | | Sessile Oak (Quercus petraea) The Sessile Oak is as long lived as the Pedunculate oak, regularly living over 500 years, but because of their less useful timber (and possibly lower acorn yields) have been planted much less. The Oak supports more fauna than any other tree in the UK; of the 284 insect species they include, in their canopy, the beautiful Purple Hairstreak. Its acorns are not carried on stalks (peduncles), but on the outer twigs. Sessile Oaks are more common in the West and North on lighter, more acid soils and do not tolerate flooding, although they are more shade tolerant than the English Oak. Oak trees are today facing the potentially catastrophic threat of Phytophthora ("Sudden Oak Death"). Provenance certificates are available on request for Sessile Oak trees, which are from the Southwest of England. We don't supply larger size oak trees as we find they don't like being moved. Suppliers: Perrie Hale Forest Nursery

During the lifting season there may be up to two weeks delay between placing the order and dispatching, due to weather conditions or pressure of orders, which are dealt with in date sequence. Orders placed for Sessile Oaks between March and September are confirmed in October ready for dispatch from November.
