These acorn-grown cork oaks (Quercus suber) are among the most cooperative of the oak genus, and have amazing bark as they age and gain size. Known as the source of wine corks and grown widely, cork oaks make great bonsai!

These 3.3" potted starters are 1 year old, unwired. Minimal branching. Trunks are 1/8” thick, height is 6-14"

Note: Photos are representative and do not show the actual tree you will receive.

Cork oaks are native to Mediterranean climates and best suited to climates where winter temperatures are mild and summers are warm and dry. They are cold tolerant in the landscape to 23F but should be protected as bonsai from temperatures below 32F.

Awesome little Oaks

I got three of these little guys and I am experimenting with different styles on each one. I am exciting to work with this genus as it is my first time. All three have arrived in great condition.

Never worked with Cork Oak. As with most material I’ve got my hands on in the past few years. But it arrives as normally expected. I’ve found a handful of suppliers however Bonsaify is my preferred until everything is sold out that I’ve had my eye on. It felt like the Star Lavender tree from bonsaify had blooms pop up several times this past summer and was a fun vine/tree to work with. This shop is always my first stop.
