🌳 Buy Sessile Oak Trees (Quercus petraea) – Native British Saplings for Year-Round Planting

Looking for a majestic native tree that supports wildlife and thrives in a variety of landscapes? The Sessile Oak (Quercus petraea) is a tall, long-lived deciduous tree that forms a strong, upright shape with a straighter trunk and more compact crown than the more common Pedunculate Oak.

As a key part of native UK woodland, the Sessile Oak is highly valued for its ecological benefits, providing food and habitat for hundreds of insect species. Its name comes from its distinctive stalkless acorns, which grow directly on the twigs in clusters. In spring and summer, the tree displays classic oak leaves with a rich green hue, turning golden in autumn.

Ideal for larger gardens, woodlands, or restoration projects, this hardy tree is particularly well suited to heavier, wetter soils, and it establishes quickly once planted.

Key Features:

  • Grows to a mature height of 20–40m
  • Native British species – excellent for biodiversity
  • Straighter trunk and less spreading crown than Pedunculate Oak
  • Stalkless acorns form in tight clusters
  • Prefers moist, well-drained or heavier ground
  • Deciduous – attractive foliage spring through autumn
  • Supplied at approx. 15–30cm tall – plant any time of year

🌱 The Sessile Oak is a proud native oak, perfect for wildlife-rich planting and long-term landscape value. Order today for fast UK delivery!

Lovely little oaks

All mine have been planted and fingers crossed they do well.
I bought three but received seven so I gave two away so they could be planted in their garden. I now have five oaks in the garden.
I probably won’t see them grow to big trees but happy that I have done by part increasing our tree population.

Quercus petraea

Excellent. Don't know if it's the sapling you're referring to, or the 11 acorns, which were extremely good value for money. The gift was for my brother's 70th birthday. He planted it immediately and it's thriving, also 2 of the acorns are germinating. He is a local town council Tree Warden, actively encouraging the reforestation of our local area in Cornwall, and is recommending that people plant as many Sessile/Cornish Oaks as possible. Thank you for your efficient service, good value for money. Have recommended you to friends and family.

The Sessile Oak (Quercus petraea) is a tall, long-lived deciduous tree that forms a strong, upright shape with a straighter trunk and more compact crown than the more common Pedunculate Oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1091\" data-start=\"714\"\u003eAs a key part of native UK woodland, the Sessile Oak is highly valued for its ecological benefits, providing food and habitat for hundreds of insect species. Its name comes from its distinctive stalkless acorns, which grow directly on the twigs in clusters. In spring and summer, the tree displays classic oak leaves with a rich green hue, turning golden in autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1269\" data-start=\"1093\"\u003eIdeal for larger gardens, woodlands, or restoration projects, this hardy tree is particularly well suited to heavier, wetter soils, and it establishes quickly once planted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1290\" data-start=\"1271\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1288\" data-start=\"1271\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1329\" data-start=\"1293\"\u003eGrows to a \u003cstrong\u003emature height of 20–40m\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1385\" data-start=\"1332\"\u003eNative British species – \u003cstrong\u003eexcellent for biodiversity\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1452\" data-start=\"1388\"\u003eStraighter trunk and less spreading crown than Pedunculate Oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1496\" data-start=\"1455\"\u003eStalkless\u003cstrong\u003e acorns form in tight clusters\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1546\" data-start=\"1499\"\u003ePrefers \u003cstrong\u003emoist, well-drained or heavier ground\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1603\" data-start=\"1549\"\u003eDeciduous – \u003cstrong\u003eattractive foliage spring through autumn\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1665\" data-start=\"1606\"\u003eSupplied at \u003cstrong\u003eapprox. 15–30cm tall\u003c\/strong\u003e – \u003cstrong\u003eplant any time \u003c\/strong\u003eof year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1759\" data-start=\"1667\"\u003e🌱 \u003cstrong data-end=\"1759\" data-start=\"1670\"\u003eThe Sessile Oak is a proud native oak, perfect for wildlife-rich planting and long-term landscape value.
