Hi mate,

Probably best to wait until the leaves grow out and harden off for a 100% ID.

My guess would be a quercus of some kind but I really can't be sure.

Hi Ken,

I don't have any liquids, but haven't seen any with that many lobes on the leaf! Maybe a different variety than I'm used to seeing??
