OAK (Quercus). Long-lived, of rapid growth 
with graceful, rounded tops. The Oaks are 
among our most valuable shade and orna¬ 
mental trees. They can be grown almost any¬ 
where, and no lawn or park is complete with¬ 
out a number of them. They are the most 
commonly planted of all our shade trees.
