The Crows Ash in Peacehaven Botanic Park |
It gives a wonderful amount of shade and is an ideal tree for a large block. However it takes some time for it to grow as large as the one in Peacehaven which is estimated to be about 150 - 200 years old.
The Park's botanic logo is based on the lovely capsule.
It is also a host plant for the beautiful Orchard Swallowtail Papilio aegeus caterpillar.The Park's botanic logo is based on the lovely capsule.
