Quercus suber is an evergreen tree with unique bark characteristics. The bark contains high amounts of suberin, which is a waxy substance that is waterproof. With that, the bark has been used to produce corks for wine bottles for years. The trees’ average growth is around 40-70 feet tall and wide. They can grow bigger, but it’s not very common.
