Looks like there must be a lot of Burr Oaks in Sweden!

To tell the truth, I don't think I have ever seen any other oaktree here ever...I even have a big one on my lot at the new house we just moved in to :-D

That's a good price!! I just bought the same book today at my local store and didn't get it for that price!

Thats the difference between American and European oaks. American oaks have tipped leaves.

The leavetips of the European oaks are round. There are some differences in the way the acorns are placed also.

European leaves are not half as beautifull when carved on leather than the Americans ( but thats a personel opinion )

Over here we have them both, European by nature and Americans from an import, long, long time ago. ( C. Columbus???? )

European oak (one of many sorts)

American oak. ( more sorts of them too.)

Sorry for the "bad" English. I'm not used to write it.

Both types of oak grow native in America . The rounded "white" type oak was here when the pilgrims landed in 1620 Native Americans in New England planted by the stages of leaf development of the white oak.

Hi Wildrose,

At my last count, there are about 15 distictively different "Oak" leaves. There are several that look very similar. Here is something I did a while back that has 9 different types of "Oak" leaves. Let me know if any of these are what You're looking for. Ed the"BearMan"
