Black Oak

The Black Oak Tree, Quercus velutina, is relatively fast-growing and one of the most common giants that is found on dry upland sites. The Black Oak, Quercus velutina, has huge green leaves with a green velvety underside. The bark of the Black Oak Tree remains smooth and dark brown for many years, and the Black Oak gets it's name "Black Oak" because the deeply grooved bark when mature can become soot black, however, the interior bark glows as a yellow-gold color; hence an alternate name, "Yellow Oak Tree."
