Small Shade Tree with Attractive Berries

Mountain Ash

Small Shade Tree with Attractive Berries

A shade tree that people and the birds will love! Growing 20-25 ft. tall with a 20-30 ft. spread, it has an oval habit and green foliage that turns yellow in the fall. In late spring, clusters of white flowers bloom. The Mountain Ash tree produces clusters of orange-red berries that provide food for birds and wildlife. The Mountain Ash tree belongs to a different genus from other ash trees and is not attacked by the emerald ash borer. This deciduous tree grows best when planted in well-drained, acidic soil in full sun to partial shade. 3-4 ft. bareroot. Zones 3-7. NOTE: We are unable to ship our trees to PO Boxes at this time.
