Rouvre

Rouvre is a French common noun referring to a type of oak tree. Specifically, it denotes the pedunculate oak or English oak ( Quercus robur). This species is a prominent and widespread oak in Europe and parts of western Asia. The term rouvre is frequently used in forestry, woodworking, and botany contexts within French-speaking regions to identify this specific oak species, distinguishing it from other oak varieties like the sessile oak (Quercus petraea), which may be referred to as chêne sessile.
