European ash

European ash (Fraxinus excelsior 'Pendula') should be watered deeply, but infrequently. As it is a species that thrive in moist soil, it should be watered around 1-2 times per week during its growing season in the spring and summer. In the fall and winter, reduce waterings to around once every 2 to 3 weeks. Always check the soil for dryness before watering. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. If the soil remains too moist, the root system may become waterlogged and may rot. Always water at the base of the plant, to ensure water is reaching the roots.

European ash (Fraxinus excelsior 'Pendula') is a deciduous plant species native to Europe that prefers full sunlight. However, it can tolerate partial shade, especially in warmer climates. The ideal amount of sunlight for this species should be at least 8 hours of full sun per day. If the ash is planted in partial shade, it should be in an area that will receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight. Additionally, the European ash should be placed in an area where it will not be exposed to strong winds, as this can damage the branches, especially in its young form.

European ash (Fraxinus excelsior 'Pendula') trees should be pruned in late winter or early spring, before any new growth begins. The best method for pruning European ash is to thin out the canopy by removing thin, weak, or dead branches, while shortening longer branches and removing crossed or competing branches. Additionally, the crown should be shortened and narrowed to allow more light and air to reach the lower branches. Pruning should be done cautiously to ensure the health of the tree, however some pruning may be needed to maintain its shape and maximize branching.
