About this plant

European ash is a vigorous deciduous tree with airy pinnate foliage and a broad crown as it matures.

As the plant matures it forms a broad, open crown, creating a strong shape through the growing season.

Best used for

Choose it for a large garden or landscape project with plenty of room for a full-sized tree.

Give the plant enough space and light to show its natural form.

Growth & mature size

Growth per year 40–80 cm per year Fast growth
Expected mature size 20–30 m high / 12–20 m wide

Expect around 40–80 cm of new growth per year after establishment in good conditions. At maturity it typically reaches 20–30 m in height and 12–20 m in width. Allow room for a broad, open crown; soil, water, exposure and pruning all influence its final outline.

How to care

Plant in fertile, well-drained soil. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Top-dress with mature compost once a year in spring, keeping it clear of the stems. Remove damaged or crossing branches as needed, avoiding heavy routine pruning.

What you will receive

You will receive a healthy container plant in the selected size. The plant is prepared for delivery and supplied ready for planting.

Natural variation in shape, branching, leaf density and seasonal appearance is normal. Plants may look different depending on the time of year.
