A perfect, unique gift for any wine lover! This Mediterranean beauty is prized for its knobbly bark, which is harvested to make wine corks. In Portugal the trees are grown in large orchards and the bark is carefully stripped and shaped in an ancient process, then used to make the corks that are so essential to good wine. PLEASE NOTE: We always deliver a healthy specimen which will grow vigorously. Oak trees are evergreen but will vary in size and shape depending on availability and time of year.Contact us directly for more information about how trees appear at present. The tree will be carefully cocooned in wood wool, gently packed into one of our uniquely crafted, sustainable wood crates, and adorned with your special gift message. Full planting and care instructions are included.Delivered direct to any UK address on the day of your choice.
