Silver Oak, Grevillea Robusta, Silky Oak – Plant
Silver Oak (Grevillea robusta), often known as the silky oak, is a beautiful and rapidly growing tree endemic to Australia. It belongs to the Proteaceae family and is commonly planted for its decorative appeal, lumber, and environmental benefits.
In perfect conditions, this plant can grow to be up to 30 meters (100 feet) tall. Its characteristic fern-like foliage is made up of thin, silver-gray leaves that shimmer in the sunlight, hence the tree’s name.
Silver oak wood is strong and durable, making it a top choice for building and making furniture. But what makes it really special in landscaping is how it gives shade, shelter, and beauty to gardens, parks, and cities.
