I grew this Oak Tree from an acorn that BBE used to play with.
I planted it in a pot on her Birthday, 20 April 2019
I transplanted it from the pot in to our garden today
14 June 2019
It will be in shock for around 2 weeks, then it will take off growing again.
This oak tree is the kind that has rainbow colours in the fall season
The leaves change colours every week starting with a bright orange, then bright Red
then purple, ending with the colour reddish-brown, then falling off.
Its acorns are larger than most acorns, with a bushy hood and is eatable.
on average this type Oak Tree lives 350 years it grows only 60 feet max
its root system doesn't spread out is goes deep mostly straight down from its trunk
So, it doesn't mess with sewage, water, and gas lines.
Its first five years it grows on average 4 feet per year.
Thereafter until it reaches 60 feet, it grows on average 6 inches per year.
In this picture its only 8.5 inches tall, it has 6 leaves with 2 more sprouting out the top.
