Berrinda Ash, Fraxinus velutina 'Berrinda,' is a rare ash variety and a very tough, cold-hardy selection that can withstand the extreme conditions of winter and summer months. Besides being so hardy and durable, this New Mexico native is also an attractive deciduous tree that lights the landscape in the fall when the small, dark green leaves turn to a vibrant golden color before its brief deciduous period! Of course, the leaves come back just in time for its nearly perfect shape to cast the right amount of cooling, dense shade. Homeowners and landscapers alike also rave about its low maintenance, and this fast-growing tree is sure to add plenty of curb appeal!

Berrinda Ash is an ideal landscape addition. In fact, it can adapt to all types of soils and once established is relatively drought tolerant with low to moderate water requirements. This Fraxinus velutina cultivar thrives in a location with full sun exposure!
