Planting & Growing

Pyramidal Mountain Ash will grow to be about 25 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 10 feet.

It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 50 years or more.

This tree should only be grown in full sunlight. It is very adaptable to both dry and moist locations, and should do just fine under average home landscape conditions.
