Looking for a versatile and reliable tree for all your needs? Look no further than Fraxinus americana, the white ash or American ash. With its dark green compound leaves and diamond-patterned bark, this tree is a beauty in any landscape. But it's more than just a pretty face - white ash is one of the most used trees for everyday purposes, and is cultivated all over North America. Its dense, strong, straight-grained wood is used for everything from baseball bats and tool handles to furniture and flooring. And the autumn leaves are a sight to behold, turning yellow, red, and purple. However, be aware of the invasive emerald ash borer and fungal disease which have caused significant damage to the ash tree population. Choose Fraxinus americana for a beautiful, versatile, and reliable addition to your landscape.
