Swamp White Oak
Quercus bicolor

Despite the name, the Swamp White Oak also grows well in drier Australian gardens. A generous and deep shade is the result of the thick broad fire-retardant foliage, which is glossy on top with a silvery-white sheen underneath. Autumn colour is usually yellow with flushes of reddish-purple. Slow growth rate.
