Oak Trees

Oak trees can live 200 years or more! All the more reason to take good care of them!

Oaks can start producing acorns when they are 20 years old but sometimes can go all the way to 50 years before the first production. By the time the tree is 70 – 80 years old, it will produce thousands of acorns.
The chances of one acorn making it to become an Oak tree are 1/10,000. that means that for every 10,000 acorns, only one becomes a tree.
