The Top Reasons to Plant a Red Oak


If you like to watch the leaves change during the summer, consider planting a Red Oak Tree in your office or home garden. It is an excellent addition to your landscape because it makes a robust and sturdy appearance. It is also a tree that grows well in various environmental conditions. While the northern Red Oak grows well in zones 3 to 7, the southern Red Oak grows well in zones 6 to 10. How much maintenance does the Red Oak require?


The Red Oak Does Not Require Much Maintenance


While you need to water your Red Oak regularly after planting it, it doesn’t require supplemental irrigation. The Red Oak is a tree that grows well in just about any soil condition. It grows well in the wild, particularly in the Southeast, so it should also grow well in your yard! You might want to prune the tree, so it grows in the right shape for your yard; however, this is not always necessary.


Why Should You Plant a Red Oak Tree in Your Yard

 

There are several reasons you should plant a Red Oak in your yard. The top features include:

The Red Oak can provide a symphony of beautiful colors that rotate throughout the year between red, orange, yellow, bronze, and green.
You can use the Red Oak as a reliable source of shade when the weather gets hot outside.
