I had these couple of pieces of Holm oak that i requited from a firewood pile back in 2007 i left them out my back garden and the mushrooms had growing all over them i cant say much about the wood so i will show you the photos
you can read my blog for more woodturning http://robbipowerwoodturner.blogspot.com/
HERE IS A SMALL BIT OF INFO ON IT FROM THE NET The term “holm” oak is another word for “holly,” so named because the foliage of Quercus ilex resembles Holly. (The tree is also sometimes known as Evergreen Oak, since it keeps its leaves year round, with old leaves falling off after the new ones appear.
