I have never seen one of these in person, but I would like to see one of these Southern Beauties someday. Very old, very large, very impressive.

The Bruce Peninsula is a key area for both plant and animal wildlife. Part of the Niagara Escarpment World Biosphere Reserve, the peninsula has the largest remaining area of forest and natural habitat in Southern Ontario[1] and is home to some of the oldest trees in eastern North America.
This trophy Live Oak was on my Florida property. The right side grew so close to the ground that I could no longer bush hog under it.
Go online and check out Oak Alley plantation in Louisiana we visited there these live oaks are 400 years old,impressive.I have never seen one of these in person, but I would like to see one of these Southern Beauties someday. Very old, very large, very impressive.

Those eastern live oaks are humongous... the local types here in California (Canyon or Coastal) don't get as big as those. They're very BTU-dense though, and it's largely what I burn. Some of my stacks are very unstable for that reason.The live oaks I've seen were all such that I would not be too happy cutting them. Crooked and tons of limbs.
keep in mind those trees were posting are 300+ years old. A live oak that is 50 years old will look nothing like that!Those eastern live oaks are humongous... the local types here in California (Canyon or Coastal) don't get as big as those.

I agree. It would take a long time to put on that much weight.
Don't know. I can put weight on pretty fast....
