Quercus rubra

Native to Ontario

Large Oak with a rounded, broad-spreading, somewhat irregular form.  Dark green leaves in the Summer, turning red to brown in the Fall.  Inconspicuous flowers (catkins) are followed by acorns.

A slow-growing, large shade tree at maturity, it needs space in which to grow. Acorns are a favourite food of wildlife.   

(Native) Oaks, according to Tallamy, support 534 species of lepidoptera (butterfly and moth) caterpillars– more than any other native tree or plant.
