Fraxinus pennsylvanica, commonly known as green ash, is a fast-growing, deciduous tree native to North America. It typically grows 50 to 70 feet tall and is known for its adaptability to a wide range of soil conditions, including wet and compacted soils. The tree has compound leaves with 5 to 9 leaflets that turn yellow in the fall, and it produces winged seeds called samaras. Green ash has been widely planted in urban and suburban areas due to its hardiness and tolerance to pollution.
