Ash

Fraxinus

This is a group of trees that grows about 50 feet high. The leaf is pinnate (feather like structure) with 5 to 9 leaflets. Seed is a one winged samara. (Think: 1/2 of a maple helicopter.

They grow at a moderate rate (1-2 feet a year) with a life span of around 50 years.

Cultivars

Plains Green ash: Drought tolerant. Short term flood tolerant too. Often planted as a shelterbelt tree. Tough as nails. One of the last trees to break bud in spring, and one of the first ones to change in fall. Fall colour is a nice clear yellow. Zone 2

Northern Treasure Ash: A hybrid of native black ash (F. nigra) and Manchurian ash (F. mandshurica) Gets to 50 feet x 30 feet, upright oval crown. Some resistance to Emerald Ash borer.

Nobility White Ash: Similar in size to Northern Treasure, but leaves go purple red in the fall.

Prairie Spire Green ash: A selection of green ash that is seedless, and very drought and cold tolerant.

Ash trees in eastern Canada are in trouble due to a critter called emerald ash borer.
