The White Oak Plant refers to the tree species *Quercus alba*, known for its strong and durable wood. This deciduous tree can grow up to 80 feet tall and is characterized by its broad, rounded crown and lobed leaves that turn vibrant colors in the fall. White oaks are commonly found in eastern and central North America and thrive in well-drained soils. White oaks produce acorns, which serve as a food source for various wildlife, including deer and squirrels. The wood of the white oak is highly valued for furniture, flooring, and barrels used in aging wine and whiskey, making it an important species in both ecology and industry.
