Sessile Oak (Quercus petraea)
Oaks are wonderful trees for wildlife. They support more fauna than any other tree in the UK, including 284 insect species and, of course, their predators (bats, birds etc.). Their acorns provide useful food for a wide range of birds and small mammals, and even their leaf mould supports specialist fungi.
Plants For Sale
Like all the native trees we sell, our Sessile oaks are grown in the UK from UK origin seed.
Suppliers: RV Roger.
We don't supply larger size oak trees as we find they don't like being moved. the 2 year old 60-90cm whips we sell in multiples of 5.
See our planting and size guide for details and tips on planting. These oak trees are mostly bare root, and are consequently available for delivery from November until March ( please ask if you are interested in pot grown plants). During the lifting season there may be up to a month's 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.
In addition to bare root plants, we also offer Quercus petraea as small cell grown plants. These have some soil around their roots and are a sort of half way house between bare root and pot grown. Their root systems are pretty small but they will establish well.
