Fraxinus pennsylvanica 'Crispa' is a Pennsylvania Ash tree with a "ball" shape and crinkled foliage. It is a variety grafted on a trunk, with a crown that has a beautiful spherical or oval shape, dense and regular. This elegant deciduous tree displays beautiful colours in autumn. Resistant to air pollution, it adapts well to urban conditions.
Fraxinus pennsylvanica, also known as the red ash or green ash, is a tree in the olive family, just like the olive tree. It is mainly found in North America, with a wide distribution area ranging from the Atlantic coast to Colorado, Alberta, and Montana in the west. Generally, it reaches a height of 12 to 25 metres and its trunk does not exceed 60 cm in diameter. In autumn, its foliage turns a beautiful lemon yellow, which is particularly attractive. Highly resistant to pollution and diseases, this species is often used as a street tree.
Fraxinus pennsylvanica 'Crispa' was introduced into the horticultural trade by Feliks Rożyński from the Zamoyski family nurseries in Podzamcze (Poland) in 1904. It has a straight trunk, the rootstock, whose height can vary. Its regular crown can reach between 3 and 6 metres in all directions. It can be shaped by pruning to achieve a more or less round or oval shape. The total height of the tree may vary depending on the height of the rootstock and the crown. On average, a specimen will reach a height of 5.50 to 6.50 metres with a crown of 3.50 metres in diameter. The foliage is deciduous and has an unusual appearance. It consists of leaves divided into thick leaflets, slightly curled with wavy margins. The leaves are dark green until late summer, then they turn yellow and rusty before falling in autumn.
The Pennsylvania Ash 'Crispa' is a tree with moderate growth that can be used as a solitary specimen on a lawn, near a terrace for shade, or to frame a gate. In urban settings, it is planted in rows along streets. While it is robust, it is sensitive to stagnant water and hot, dry conditions. To enhance its appearance, spring bulbs can be planted at its base, including daffodils and snowdrops. Fans of "ball" trees will also appreciate Acer platanoides 'Globosum', the umbrella acacia (Robinia pseudoacacia 'Umbraculifera'), Platanus acerifolia 'Alphen's Globe', and Ginkgo biloba 'Mariken'.

Davantage d'informations sur https://plantes-risque.info
Plant your Fraxinus pennsylvanica 'Crispa' in autumn or spring, choose an open location in full sun, where the soil is deep, and keep in mind the space it will take up in the long term. If necessary, create a drainage pit with rocks if your soil is waterlogged. If your soil is poor, a generous addition of leaf compost will be beneficial. Maintain regular watering during the summer following planting and ensure it is protected from prolonged droughts for another year, mulching can help retain moisture at the base and space out watering. This tree requires consistently moist soil, at least at depth. It is perfectly frost resistant. Prune to balance the shape of the tree by opening up the centre of the crown and shortening overly long branches.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
