Quercus bicolor (Missouri source)

Common Name: Swamp White Oak (Missouri source)

Flaking bark texture, even on young trees. Although its common name indicates that it prefers moist areas, it is drought tolerant. The silver undersides of the leaves lend contrast to the upper leaf surface, prompting the species name "bicolor". Among the easiest of the oaks to transplant, it is also hardy and has few insect or disease problems.
