I collected some seeds from this tree recently and would like to learn more about it. This one is growing in zone 6b, thanks in advance.

Ash, I think. Not the same species we have here though.

I believe that is a green ash tree (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), but if not green, it is at least an ash of some kind.

If it is ash, I wouldn’t bother to plant them because of the Emerald Ash Borer. It sounds unstoppable, but I haven’t read anything lately. I will see if I can find anything hopeful.

They are really nice trees though.

It looks like Emerald Ash Borer hasn’t found Idaho yet.

We've gotta get close enough to that helmet to pull the choke on it's engine and flood his mind! Or, we could just read this tiny ad:
