Mountain Ash
What: Mountain Ash (Sorbus decora) is a native Canadian ornamental tree that delivers spectacular four-season interest with large clusters of white spring flowers, brilliant fall foliage, and persistent orange-red berry clusters. These striking berries provide invaluable food for birds while adding vibrant color to the winter landscape.
Best use: Use Mountain Ash as a specimen tree to showcase its year-round beauty, in mixed borders for seasonal interest, or naturalized at the edge of a woodland garden. Its striking berries and flowers make it an excellent addition to wildlife gardens, where birds will flock to it in fall and winter.
