Abstract

Green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica Marsh.) is one of the few native hardwood species that has been planted for afforestation in appreciable numbers in this country. In the Central States this species has been grown mainly on submarginal farmland and on strip-mine spoil banks, while in the Great Plains it has been planted for shelterbelts. In the Northeast, only limited experimental plantings have been attempted.
