White Ash is a large deciduous tree that's often grown in residential yards and along boulevards.
Similar to Green Ash, White Ash is distinguished by the lighter colour of the undersides of the leaves.
While Green Ash turns gold in the fall, White Ash turns a gorgeous burgundy.
Yellow Birch is a large and valuable hardwood species in northeastern North America. The bark on its limbs and young trunks is silvery-yellowish in colour, hence the name. This tree prefers to grow in cool regions with damp or saturated soil.
Yellow Birch can be tapped for syrup, like Sugar Maple. Although the sap has less sugar content, it flows in greater quantity than maple trees.
Note: Unfortunately this difficult to grow species is not currently scheduled to grow at TreeTime.ca. Perhaps try purchasing seed from SeedTime.ca and growing your own? Or sign up for a restock notification above.
