Quercus rubra ‘Rubra’, commonly known as Red Oak, is a majestic deciduous shade tree valued for its broad, spreading canopy and exceptional autumn colour. Its dense green foliage provides excellent summer shade before turning vivid shades of crimson and deep red in autumn, creating a dramatic seasonal display.

This long-lived and resilient tree is ideal for large landscapes, parks, and avenue planting where strong structure and lasting impact are required. It thrives in full sun, adapts well to a range of soil conditions, and is relatively low maintenance once established, making it a dependable choice for long-term landscape design.
