Oak trees are known to kill other trees and bushes around them due to their thick foliage blocking sunlight to the lower forest floor. This kill zone is 1 tile at mature and 2 tiles at old (see illustration below). For this reason, when planting an oak, leaving at least 2 tiles between it and other trees or vegetation is highly recommended. Planted hedges will not be killed by oak trees.
Exclusion zones from Oaks or Willows may overlap the exclusion zone of the Oak, but all trees that are actually growing inside the zone will die. The dying tree will only be killed when the oak moves to the next age level that induces the kill. Until that time, it will continue to grow and age as normal.
