Common Name: white oak
Scientific Name: Quercus alba
Category: Champion (big) tree
Comments: This tree is the only surviving one of three that used to surround my parents house in Amelia. It truly huge and is about 16ft around and I would estimate around 70ft tall. The other two trees succumbed to the wind a few years ago but this one is still standing strong. The house has been in my mothers family for over 100 years and the tree is probably at least twice that old.
