I decided this deserved its own thread. My Schuette's Oak sapling (at almost 9', I don't think I can call it a seedling anymore), I started from an acorn in spring, 2015. It's a hybrid of Swamp White Oak (Quercus bicolor) and Bur Oak (Q. macrocarpa). So far, it has always more strongly resembled swamp white oak, at least as far as foliage, but the newest growth is now looking more like a Bur Oak. This is more just for amusement, but I thought it might make for an interesting discussion.
Lower branches. More like Swamp White.
The leader, on a very strong second flush of growth. Looks more Bur-Like.
Whole tree.
