Quercus alba 'Grandchildren of Wye Oak' Woodlanders Introduction ruby-throated hummingbirdsThese are the grandchildren of a legend. The Wye Oak of Wye Mills, Maryland, was the greatest white oak in the country, a single tree that stood more than four hundred and sixty years and served as Maryland's state tree until a storm finally brought the giant down in 2002. Quercus alba 'Grandchildren of Wye Oak' are seedling grown descendants of that famous tree, carrying the bloodline of an American icon into gardens that have room for the long view.
