Have you ever wondered where cork comes from? It comes from the bark of the Cork Oak tree (tree species name - Quercus suber). The cork bark of this species of oak tree (yes it does produce acorns) can grow to become two to three inches thick. Normally however it is harvested when it is about one or one and a half inches thick.
Cork is the outer bark of the cork oak tree. Scientifically the Latin name for the cork oak tree is Quercus (oak) suber (cork). This remarkable tree has a bark (suberose parenchyma) which is unique throughout the plant kingdom. The cork bark can be harvested from the tree allowing new bark to grow in its place without killing or damaging the trees.
