ENTS: Need help in identifying Shumard Oak. Other then seeing some small specimens in arboretums, it is a species that has never been on my radar. There are supposedly some stands along the Ohio River near Parkersburg, WV where I am going to take some winter time strolls in some bottomland sites. What stands out as far as bark and branching habit that will tell me it is a Shumard. There are no acorns this year and leaves have not been helpful. Any advice appreciated. Thanks Beth for reminding me about Shumard Oak. Turner Sharp
