Description
Fraxinus excelsior ‘Jaspidea’ is a vigorous medium-sized deciduous tree with yellow young shoots in winter. The leaves are pinnate, starting yellow when young and also in autumn. Jaspidea Ash has flowers that are fairly inconspicuous.
We are currently unable to import Ash trees due to ash dieback disease. The disease is caused by the fungus Chalara fraxinea and leads to leaf loss and for some death. Ash dieback is now present in most parts of England, although the severity of the disease varies locally. The Arboricultural Association has compiled this useful guide please follow the link for more information.
