Interesting facts about the Sessile Oak

The sessile oak (Quercus petraea) is the oak of dry hill areas – more adaptable and drought-resistant than the common oak, and equally valuable ecologically.

• Growth height: up to 40 meters, impressive broad crown
• Life expectancy: up to 1,000 years – a tree for generations
• Drought-resistant – thrives on rocky, sandy & nutrient-poor soils
• Frost-hardy & adaptable – from plains to hilly areas
• Habitat for hundreds of insect, bird & mammal species
• Oak wood: one of Europe's hardest & most durable timber woods – used for wine and whiskey barrel production

How it works

Press seeds into the soil, water – and let it grow. After nurturing, you can plant the seedling directly with the compostable pot into the ground or a larger container. The pot decomposes without residue within 12–24 months. Your plant roots freely and undisturbed.
