  • Botanical Name: Quercus cerris
  • Mature Height: 15-20m
  • ​Key Features: Dark green foliage; Deciduous; Fast growing; Yellow Autumn foliage; Good for coastal location; excellent timber​

The Turkey Oak, well known for its fast growth and traditionally its use for quality timber production was introduced into the UK in 1735. This large deciduous tree is a great choice large gardens, parklands and pastures.

Q. cerris is a magnificent large stately that can reach 15-20 meters in height and spread. Its bark is one that is unique with a rough, cracked texture and a silver-grey colour which contrasts very well with its dark green lobed leaves. These leaves then provide a pleasing autumnal display of golden yellow and often remain on the tree well into winter.
​
Whilst its common name may lead you to believe that it does best in warmer climates the Turkey Oak in fact is a very tough and robust tree capable of withstanding all our weather can through at it and indeed is very useful in coastal locations. Fully hardy.
