Mountain Ash
The Mountain Ash is actually not an Ash but a member of the rose family. Sorbus aucuparia is a European native and the most widely planted of a large group of similar shrubs and trees. The native Mountain Ashes are just as beautiful, but most species tend to be shrubby in nature. The European Mountain Ash has a more distinctly tree-like form. Mountain Ash is a good small tree for home landscapes and is especially appreciated for its long-lasting berries.
