    I think we don't have this one, or is very uncommon.

    That was the one I had. We call it surera. The Spanish call it alcornoque, which also means nitwit.

    That's the typical one. We call it alzina.

    Two that also exist in Catalonia:

    - the carrasca (Quercus rotundifolia)




    - the reboll (Quercus pyrenaica)

    Lech, Czech and Rus (Rogalin oaks) are three ancient large oaks in the garden adjacent to the 18th century palace in Rogalin, Greater Poland. They were named after three Slavic brothers who according to the legend established their kingdoms: Lech – Poland, Czech – Czech kingdom and Rus – Russia.

    That picture was taken at Springhill College. A small Roman Catholic Jesuit school in Mobile. Like New Orleans, Mobile was founded by the French. It was incorporated in 1703. Pretty old for an American city. It was the first city in America to have a Mardi Gras celebration. Older than the one in New Orleans.

    That little campus has beautiful oak trees everywhere.
