Barb,

We are all here to help out.

About buying a specimen tree - do you know how big a hole you have to dig? Smaller is better in that respect.

At UC-Davis they did a study on planting trees from various sized containers. They found that within 5 years (not a long time) the smaller containers grew iinto the same size tree as the larger containers (and sometimes better).

And now your adventure begins.....if you get a chance send a photo.

This is not a cork oak>
