Fraxinus Pennsylvanica Urbanite

Fraxinus pennsylvanica Urbanite, commonly known as Urbanite Ash, is a robust, deciduous shade tree prized for its upright, symmetrical form and adaptability to urban environments. Its glossy, dark green leaves turn a striking bronze to deep purple in autumn, creating seasonal interest. Growing to 12–15 meters in height, it’s an excellent choice for large gardens, streetscapes, or parkland plantings.

To grow Urbanite in Melbourne, Sydney, or Brisbane, plant it in well-drained soil in full sun. It thrives in a wide range of soil types, including clay and sandy soils, and tolerates drought, heat, and urban pollution once established. Water regularly during the first few years to encourage strong root development. Minimal pruning is required to maintain its form, making it a low-maintenance option for landscape designs. Its resilience and striking appearance make it a standout feature tree.
