The Black Oak tree Quercus velutina is very similar in appearance to the Red Oak. One of the main differences include its ability to thrive on poor and varied soils. It is sometimes called yellow oak quercitronyellowbark oak or smoothbark oak. Black Oak trees occur naturally on poor sandy or clay hillsides. This deciduous tree has deeply furrowed bark and on mature trees is nearly black. Historically the inner bark was important for its tannin and as a source of yellow dye. |
