Plant Description

The Quercus pyrenaica, commonly known as the Pyrenean Oak, is a deciduous tree characterized by its deeply lobed, fuzzy leaves and rugged bark. Native to southwestern Europe, this oak can reach heights of 20–25 meters, forming a broad, spreading canopy. Its leaves, with a dense covering of trichomes, provide a silvery texture, and its acorns, ripening in early autumn, are a key feature. The Quercus pyrenaica thrives in poor, acidic soils and plays an essential role in forest ecosystems, providing habitat and food for wildlife.
