1971 Comments:
T
he trees are upright spreading in habit and uniform in size and shape. The attractive fruit adds to the beauty of the tree. These plants are susceptible to borers and other problems. As yet, no problems have been found.

1997 Comments:
Of the estimated twenty plants originally planted, none remain. In Ohio, Mountain Ash does better in lake-effect regions and in areas with low stress levels. This plant is stress intolerant in Ohio.

 


Zero percent of the overall planting survived (0 of 20 trees).
