Boom and bust cycles of acorn production do have an evolutionary benefit for oak trees through âpredator satiation.â The idea goes like this: in a mast year, predators (chipmunks, squirrels, turkeys, blue jays, deer, bear, etc.) canât eat all the acorns, leaving some nuts for growing into future oak trees.
These Bur Oak seedlings have grown all summer long, and are ready for fall planting in the landscape. In October, plant the âoak from an acornâ in a sunny location with plenty of room to grow, and away from overhead utility lines. Dig the planting hole twice the width of the container to reduce conflicts with any nearby plants and to provide loose soil for new roots to develop. Do not plant too deep.
