Rad Oak

The tree arrived in good shape with all the leaves on it looking good. I am concerned about how the tree will come out in spring because it was topped. I assume that was done in packing to make it fit the box. Not sure how that is going to grow out???

Trees.com Plant ExpertHi James, we're happy to hear your Northern Red Oak Tree arrived in great condition! We understand your concern about the trimmed top, but heading back the central leader is a standard nursery practice that helps protect young trees during shipping. New shoots will develop near the cut as the tree resumes growth in spring, allowing a new leader to take shape. We expect your tree to grow out beautifully, and we're always here if you need any guidance!
