I need some leaves of a Quercus suber (Cork Oak)

[RobArb]

Argh..!! i had collected some leaves from a small (or what i thought was) Quercus suber

 

Unfortunately it have now re-ID'd the tree and it wasn't Q. suber but Q. x hispanica.... DOH!!

 

So, i am in need of at least 4 leaves from a cork oak, would anyone be able to get some or point out the loaction of one in the North west, preferably West Lancashire or Salford ish area?

 

Pleeeeaase:biggrin:

Sorry mate dont know of any close but i can say they make a real horrible squeaking sound when you prune them with a silky. Also if you go to Sardinia you will see plenty looking like this...
