- Fraxinus griffithii, commonly known as Evergreen Ash, is a fast-growing tree with a rounded form. Its dark green pinnate leaflets create lush foliage, while masses of small white fragrant flowers appear in large, loose panicles during spring, almost covering the entire tree. This hardy tree performs best in well-drained soil and becomes drought tolerant once established. However, avoid waterlogged areas to prevent root rot. Although evergreen, Evergreen Ash can become semi-deciduous in colder climates. It grows to around 6 x 4 metres, forming a beautiful shade tree for gardens and landscapes. The tree is easily clipped to maintain shape and height, making it versatile for design. Very hardy, it also thrives in industrial sites, carparks, and coastal areas, offering resilience and reliability in challenging conditions.
- Fraxinus excelsior ‘Purple Spire’, commonly known as Purple Ash, is a deciduous, upright-growing tree with a remarkably even branching structure. Over time, it develops into an oval shape, with a moderate to fast growth rate. Throughout spring and summer, it bears glossy green foliage that transforms into striking shades of purple and orange in autumn, adding seasonal interest. Interestingly, this cultivar was developed in New Zealand, although its Fraxinus parentage traces back to Europe. Ideally, it prefers moist, well-drained soil and will tolerate some wind, making it a resilient choice for various landscapes. As such, it’s excellent for planting along streets, avenues, or long driveways. Typically, it reaches approximately 8 x 4 metres, offering structure and colour without overwhelming smaller spaces.
