Shamel or Evergreen Ash

Common name:Shamel or Evergreen Ash
Botanical name:Fraxinus uhdei

This evergreen to semi-evergreen tree is both upright and narrow when young, but assumes a spreading form when older. Since it is shallow rooted, deep waterings are essential for deeper rootings. When the tree is young, any long, unsightly branches should be cut back.
