zest, no, it is a Scrub Oak (Quercus ilicifolia) that I have pruned ( I have a dozen or more that we keep clipped, plus some we just leave in their natural state in the untended parts of our property ). Here are two, the larger that you mentioned above plus a smaller one that was only 1 foot high when we moved it to the raised bed area in 1983 from the bramble. The first was more of a shrub when we cleared around it and formed it into a small tree. Many people here clear the land of them as they don't see how beautiful they are when isolated and assisted.
