Oaks so far

Grandson Sidney with (clearly) cork oak, Redford Park, December 2023

A place marker post today, with links to all oak species already mentioned in Talking Plants, before or after it transformed into an oak fest. Where mentioned in more than one post, I've provide a link to the search results from that name.
