Descripción
Wood from the species Quercus palustris, native primarily to bottomlands and moist uplands of eastern North America, but found as far west as Oklahoma and Ontario, Canada. It is a reddish brown hard wood that shrinks and cracks with drying; sometimes sold as red oak for flooring and lumber, but it is weaker and contains more knots.
