Details
A whitetail deer’s dream tree and a must-have for any wildlife-focused landowner. This isn’t just any oak; it’s a towering, long-lived giant that’s been a staple across the central and eastern U.S. for centuries, growing up to 100’ with wide, sprawling branches and a dense, rounded crown that turns heads with its blazing fall color. But it’s not just pretty—it’s a powerhouse for deer. Those sweet, low-tannin acorns (¾” to 1” long, tucked in warty, bowl-shaped cups) drop like candy in the fall, drawing whitetails in when other food plots fade.
Tough as nails, this stately tree thrives in a variety of soils and conditions—though it loves a moist, well-drained loam best—and demands full sun to strut its stuff. Land managers prize its hard wood and unmatched wildlife value, making it a cornerstone for any deer orchard or habitat plan. Plant it, and watch it become the backbone of your property’s whitetail legacy.
