  • Description

  • Notes

Summit Ash is a tall, upright, pyramidal tree that grows 50 to 70 feet tall and 40 to 60 feet wide (at a moderate pace). Compound, pinnate leaves are a medium green, turning yellow in the fall. 'Summit' is a male cultivar, and so, while it produces flowers (small and inconspicuous), it does not produce seed. A nice shade tree.
