which one would you be?



I would be a bur oak.

You also would not contract oak wilt, as that only affects red oaks and not white oaks like a bur oak.

You can also drop the massive acorns on squirrels. :lol

I would be willing to bet that I have one of the largest bur oak trees in Texas on my place, plus several more extremely large bur oaks. You want some acorns?

Except for my cousin Q. virginiana and his highland sibling Q. fusiformis.

Oh, my huge nuts? :elephant

One of my live oaks got attacked by oakworm caterpillars and is producing them in copious quantities. But thanks.

Just use the acorns at the driving range.
