Overcup Oak

Overcup Oak is a medium-sized deciduous tree known for its acorn-bearing capabilities. It is typically found in bottomland forests and areas with poor drainage. The tree is named for its acorns, which are almost entirely enclosed by the cup, leading to a characteristic appearance. Its bark is light gray to somewhat white and scaly. The leaves are lobed, resembling those of other oaks but tend to have more rounded lobes.
