I've heard the Sessile oak also being called Welsh oak, possibly as a form of arboreal rivalry to the Pedunculate (or English) oak. I suppose this usage would be pretty restricted in its geographical range. Throquzum 12:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Apparently it's the national tree of wales. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/north_west/3920051.stm Perhaps that should be mentioned on this article.
I've also heard that the Sessile Oak is more common in Scotland, especially the West Highlands, than the Pedunculate Oak. Can anyone confirm this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.148.33.92 ( talk) 21:06, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
Since the above discussions, the term "Irish oak" has been added to the lead paragraphs and is now in the opening sentence. I couldn't find any evidence of this term. In particular, the cited Tree Council of Ireland don't really mention it except to say on one page that the traditional Irish oak is the sessile oak. So I don't think Irish Oak can be considered a common name. GRIN lists "sessile oak" and "durmast oak" as the only English language common names. My feeling is that the terms Irish, Welsh and Cornish oak should all be removed. Wondering what others think about this. Thanks Declangi ( talk) 04:00, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
