Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

This deciduous tree grows about 25 to 35 feet tall and about half as wide. Compound pinnate leaves are a deep, lustrous green, turning a plum red in the fall. Ashes tend to leaf out lat in the spring and loose their leaves early in the fall. The smaller scale of Raywood ash lends itself well to patios, entries, and smaller spaces.
