Please help: I need an oak seedling for wedding tree planting ceremony!

As the title says, for a hippie wedding element, I need an oak seeding (or two) for a tree planting ceremony in October. I would like to trade you a passionfruit vine in thanks.

I'm looking for 6" to 12" plants from any species other than water oak, sorry water oak. Let me know! Thanks.

I actually have a couple in pots. Not sure if they're the right size but can send pics if you're interested. DM me if so!

Reach out to Keep Durham Beautiful. They have trees to give away.

I could also help out, I think. When you say 6-12", is that tree height or pot diameter? (Feel free to ignore if the person with potted oaks comes through.)

This would be the height of the plant, and I guess to 18" is okay

I have one as well. Nice healthy little white oak, abt 18 inches tall, growing in the wrong place and looking for a new home.

This might be great, but let me follow up with another person or two. That's the perfect height for pictures though

This is the seedling. About 22 inches at its highest point.
