Oak tree pollination?

[silver pigeon]

I am getting ready to order some oak trees. Is it wise to plant two or more of the same species? Will that result in better pollination and or better acorn yields later on? Thanks

Yes and Yes.

Self-pollenation occurs at very low percentages...same species in the vicinity is helpful...hybridizing with other members of the same group (white or red) can occur, as well
