Fraxinus excelsior

Fraxinus excelsior is a large tree native to most of Europe and Western Asia.

It reaches up to 40 meters in height.

The flowers arise from lateral buds on the previous year's shoots, forming a panicle.

The leaves are large, consisting of 9-15 leaflets. Each leaflet is oblong-lanceolate, slightly unequal at the base, sharp at the tip, with slightly sharp serrations on the edges. The upper surface is dark green, the lower surface grayish-green. The midrib and lateral veins are white.

The fruit are single-seeded, oblong, flattened nuts with a wing for wind dispersal.

Every order is accompanied by a receipt or (upon request) an invoice, a delivery note compliant with WIORiN requirements, and a plant passport, if required. The seeds we offer are of high quality and designed for both nurserymen and amateurs.

Seed Handling Instructions:

To sow the seeds, perform a warm-cold stratification: for 16 weeks at 5-20°C, followed by another 16 weeks at 3°C. After removing the seeds from the cool soil, sow them in moist soil, preferably in spring. Regularly check the soil moisture throughout the process. Moisten the soil as needed and monitor the condition of the seeds. Once stratification is complete, sow the seeds in moist soil in trays or pots. Maintain constant soil moisture until seedlings emerge.
