Actually, it's not THAT Live Oak.

More specifically, it's Canyon Live Oak. It's specific to California I believe.

This whole thread got me researching. Didn't know there were over 60 types of Oak throughout the US and they all seem to be a bit different.

Anyway, we call it Live Oak. But it's really Canyon Live Oak. The other type, and most common, we have and burn is Black Oak. Haven't checked yet, but I'm betting there's more to that species too.
