Ash tree – photo and description

Ash is a deciduous tree with a light, clear crown. A mature tree reaches up to 40 m in height and 1.5 m in diameter. It is easily recognized by its slender trunk, covered with dark gray bark with small cracks. Ash wood is used to make furniture fronts. Thanks to its transparent crown, the tree is used for landscaping garden plots and city parks and squares. The tree's root system is located close to the surface.

Ash is unpretentious and can grow in any soil, but most of all it prefers fertile soil with medium acidity. Most species lack a taproot. If ash grows in arid regions, the tree grows a tap root and forms horizontal shoots. There are species that can independently water themselves, obtaining water from a depth of 3 m.

Despite numerous advantages, ash furniture also has weaknesses. The main disadvantage of the breed is its relatively low tannin content.

How many years does an ash tree live?

The average lifespan of a tree is about 100 years. There are long-lived species, their age can reach 350 years. Single specimens that grow in fertile soil and a sunny place “live” the longest. Ash trees growing in dense forests quickly die due to lack of light.

Ash is best grown in a sunny location.

When the ash tree blooms

Flowering occurs in early spring. Both female and male flowers bloom on the tree, which have paniculate inflorescences in the form of thin fluff of snow-white, yellowish or purple color. Female flowers are pollinated from neighboring trees, since male flowers appear much later. Due to its lack of aroma, the tree rarely attracts insects.

Flowers lack perianth
