Swamp White Oak is a native, medium to large tree known for its rugged beauty and ability to thrive in tough conditions. It typically grows 50–60 feet tall with a broad, rounded canopy that offers excellent shade. Its glossy green leaves have a silvery underside, and in fall they turn warm shades of gold and brown. One of its standout features is its textured bark, which peels slightly on young branches, adding visual interest. Ideal for rain gardens, clay soils, or areas prone to flooding, this oak brings timeless character and reliability to both rural and urban landscapes.
