We were wondering in work what is the average life expectancy of your average oak tree ?? We know it can live for a couple of hundred years, but what is the accepted age that an oak tree can live ????

Barring any major disease or physical damage, I would safely say 150+ years. _________________ Gardening books. http://www.allotments.ie/ Ireland's allotments. On Twitter... http://twitter.com/Allotments Garden Consultation & Design. Try my Garden Design home study course! . .
