Black Locust and White Oak are Native there ?

Oregon white oak. I guess it depends on how far back you want to go with what is truly native. They grow wild and free around here. Locust along the river especially.

So are the White Oak's native or naturalized?

Can't wait to see Gerry's pics, should be something else!

If anything is native here it would be the Oregon white oak, California black oak, canyon live oak, pacific madrone and the mentioned conifers on the most basic level. Why does that seem hard to grasp? Who determines what is "native", interesting thing to look up.

This doesn't differentiate between native and naturalized but does label invasives. http://oregonstate.edu/dept/ldplants/native-or.htm

This is one of our local native plant nurseries with a native species list. http://www.plantoregon.com/Page.asp?NavID=13 They have some sweet trees, up to 6" even, they have a nice display at the Master gardener show every year.

Don't sweat it Willie.I have visited you and can testify that you have plenty of different trees.





Of course it is always easy to impress someone from the subarctic region, since we don't.

Not hard to grasp... I just didnt think they were native to the area....especially Black Locust, but hell I've been wrong before.....

Safe Travels Gerry.....
