Discover the majestic Fraxinus latifolia, commonly known as Oregon Ash, a resilient and essential tree native to the Pacific Northwest. This broadleaf deciduous tree, reaching heights of 60-80 feet, thrives in wetland and riparian forests from British Columbia through Oregon and into California. Its slender trunk supports a dense, dome-shaped canopy, making it an elegant addition to landscapes. Known for its adaptability, Oregon Ash flourishes in diverse soil conditions, from clay to sandy or gravelly terrains, and withstands both full sun and partial shade. This hard-working tree plays a crucial role in stabilizing wetland soils and filtering pollutants, protecting watersheds, and reducing soil erosion. Its leaf litter is invaluable to aquatic invertebrates, while its seeds and foliage nourish and shelter numerous wildlife species, including birds, bees, and over fifty types of butterflies and moths. Oregon Ash is the perfect choice for greening soggy areas, offering ecological benefits and visual appeal with its golden fall foliage and distinctive samaras.
