Yes, that bur oak was an acorn last fall. Produced in a 5" mesh bag in one season, it is 3' tall.

Ernie/LHDP/Scott:

Maybe white, maybe swamp white, maybe overcup, or....my money is on Quercus michauxii, swamp chestnut oak. Who knows who got in the woodshed with it, but it is definitely dominantly bur oak with the leaf character and corky bark already evident.

Here's some more color, as I learn the ins and outs of my camera better.

Taxodium mucronatum at the Valley.
