Cork oak, also known as Quercus suber
Cork oak typically thrives in well-drained soils and tolerates a range of soil pH levels but prefers slightly acidic conditions. It is a hardy species, requiring full sun exposure to develop optimally. Special care points include managing water needs, as cork oak is drought-tolerant once established but should be watered regularly during the establishment phase. Protection from excessive cold and frost is also crucial in cooler climates.
