Northern Red Oak is a stately, long-lived native tree that can grow 60–75 feet tall, making it a powerful presence in any landscape. It’s prized for its broad, rounded canopy and bold, lobed leaves that turn vivid red to russet in autumn. This oak grows faster than many other oak species, establishing quickly and providing excellent shade. Its deep roots and adaptability to urban or rural conditions make it ideal for large yards, parks, and along streets. With strong wood, excellent cold tolerance, and minimal fuss, it's a timeless favorite for homeowners wanting a tree that grows with the family.
