CAn anyone tell me the pros/cons of planting a young cork oak (quercus
suber) in the middle of a lawn?  I was at a park tonight where there were
cork oaks growing in a lawn and it looks just fine (and old.)  I have a
young nursery-grown tree ready to be planted and a hole in the middle of my
lawn where an apple tree croaked.  Can I combine the two?

Thanks!

Nan

So goes an old chinese proverb:
         If you want to be happy for a few hours, get drunk;
         If you want to be happy for a week-end get married;
         If you want to be happy for a week, barbeque a pig;
         If you want to be happy all your life long become a gardener
