What Type of Tree Makes an Acorn? Only trees in the Quercus genus produce acorns. Watch a squirrel or chipmunk forage for food and no doubt a cache of acorns will appear. Acorns provide food for various wildlife, or they would otherwise litter the forest floor and rot since they are too heavy to disperse via wind.
Elms are also often grown as bonsai, including cedar elms (Ulmus crassifolia) and Chinese elms (Ulmus parvifolia). Maple trees (Acer) are a favorite for beginners, especially Japanese maple (Acer palmatum). Hawthorne trees (Crataegus) grow fast and have naturally small leaves, as do the various Buxus tree species.
