Identification - large acorn
Just back from a small Greek island a few miles from Turkey, where we
saw a large oak tree, with leathery evergreen leaves about 9cm long and 3 cm wide, with toothed edges. But the most striking thing was the acorns - almost 5cm long, peering out of a thick shaggy cup 5.5cm diameter. Best identification so far is Quercus calliprenos. But I think the scales on the cup of that one are turned out at the tip, whereas the ones on mine are laid flat. -- Kay |
