Fraxinus Sambucina Var. Pubescens

Fraxinus sambucina var. pubescens is a unique variant of the common ash tree known for its distinctive hairy foliage. This plant thrives in temperate climates and is often found in woodland areas with moist, well-drained soil. Its leaves are lance-shaped and covered in fine pubescence, giving it a soft, fuzzy appearance. The tree produces small, greenish-yellow flowers in early spring, followed by winged seeds that aid in its dispersal. Due to its ornamental value and ecological importance, it is a fascinating subject for botanists and nature enthusiasts alike.
