| | Does Your Ash Tree Have the Emerald Ash Borer? |
 | | Infested ash trees first show dieback of upper branches, progressing to death of major branches, water sprouts on the trunk, and finally, water sprouts at the base of the otherwise dead tree. | | | It is commonly attracted to ash trees that are under stress and while it can kill the tree, this is often a slow process and good maintenance of the trees coupled with insecticide treatment at the proper time can minimize the damage. | | | Many are finding holes in their trees and worrying that the tree has this new insect. |

| | European Ash - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | It is a deciduous tree 20-35 m tall, and is readily distinguished from other species of ash in that it has black buds, unlike the brown buds of most other ashes. | | | The leaves of the European Ash are often among the last to open in spring, and the first to fall in autumn if an early frost strikes. | | | The female flowers develop into fruits, and because they hang in bunches the fruits of the ash tree are known as 'ash keys'. |

| | National Wildlife: The Great American Pastime Tree - white ash |
| | Trees of harvestable size that become infected with the microbe, which is transmitted by small plant-sucking insects called leafhoppers, will succumb in 5 to 10 years. | | | At the same time, the branches of female ash trees sag with copious crops of flat, winged seeds that are shaped like elfin canoe paddles and are an important food resource for wood ducks, quail, wild turkeys, grouse, grosbeaks, cardinals and other songbirds. | | | The blight is most severe in areas where the forest has been invaded by fingers of housing and their attendant cultivated plants and weeds that attract the insects. |

| | Ash Tree |
| | Like most of those trees which, from their flowering before the bursting of their leaf-buds, are termed "precocious," the Ash is probably often cross-fertilized by the wind. | | | There are frequent allusions to the Ash throughout European literature, since its tough saplings were naturally chosen by both Greeks and Romans for their spears, whilst the agricultural writers of the latter nation recommend its wood for agricultural implements, a use to which it is still largely applied. | | | Few trees are less particular as to soil than the Ash; but perhaps the sugar which in warmer latitudes exudes as "manna" from allied species produces in the North that greater luxuriance of growth which gives us the tree in its highest beauty. |

| | Ash Alert |
| | Emerald ash borer is an insect native of Asia (eastern Russia, northeastern China, Mongolia, Taiwan, Japan, and Korea), where it can be found on several species of ash and is not considered a pest. | | | The Ohio Department of Agriculture is implementing an aggressive emerald ash borer eradication plan, which includes periodic surveillance and the elimination of ash trees in infested areas. | | | Some of the trees attacked by the insect appear to have been stressed or weakened by drought, disease, or poor soil; however, many healthy ashes have been infested and killed as well. |

| | Aelian mentions honey from box trees in Pontus and reports of honey from plants in Thrace. | | | However, if the Meliai are considered to be both ash tree nymphs and honey nymphs due to their production of manna and honeydew, the common elements of these stories make considerably more sense. | | | One can imagine an earlier version of the story in which the bees were altogether absent, and the ash trees and goat by themselves were sufficient to carry honey mead to Zeus. |

| | You can recognize trees by their leaves, which are divided into many pairs of leaflets with a single leaflet at the tip, and by the seeds with their long wings. | | | In winter the Ash is easy to recognise by its hard black buds, which are borne in opposite pairs on the smooth grey-green twigs. | | | Although hardy enough to survive anywhere, ash trees prefer valley bottoms and stream sides. |

| | Blue Ash is unique among the ashes in the four-sidedness of its young twigs, and often has distinct lines, corkiness, or wings at each of the four edges (lower left). | | | In addition, seed litter (from all trees) and surface roots (with age in compacted or shallow soils) are potential liabilities in urban areas. | | | Third, it does not have separate male and female trees, since all of its flowers are "perfect", and therefore every tree can yield fertile seeds under appropriate conditions. |

| | The small trees constituting this sub-genus are rather closely lied to one another, differing mainly in the form of their leaves and in the shape and color of their fruit. | | | The Rowan, the White Beam, and the Service Trees form together a sub-genus, known as Sorbus, distinguished by having their small white flowers in branched clusters, technically known as "cymes," which are followed by groups of small berry-like fruits containing but few seeds. | | | These visits are apparently to a great extent necessary- to the setting of seed, since the stigmas of the flowers become sticky, i.e., reach their maturity, before the stamens are ready to shed their pollen; so that no one flower can be fertilised by its own pollen. |
