Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Claret Ash, Fraxinus angustifolia 'Raywood'
One of the most visually commanding deciduous trees available in advanced stock, the Claret Ash delivers a broad, symmetrical canopy and a seasonal colour display that defines prestige landscapes. Deep green through summer, the foliage transitions to an intense claret-red in autumn, a spectacle that reads powerfully at scale.
Why Claret Ash
Autumn Colour: Among the most vivid of any deciduous species, deep burgundy-red foliage with exceptional seasonal impact.
Canopy Structure: Wide, symmetrical form that matures into a commanding shade tree suited to large-scale properties.
Climate Resilience: Established specimens handle drought and frost reliably, well suited to temperate and inland Australian climates.
Fast Establishment: Vigorous growth rate accelerates canopy development, particularly when planted as advanced stock.
Low Intervention: Once established, requires minimal maintenance, no routine fertilising or intervention needed to perform.
Ideal Applications
Avenue Planting: A natural choice for driveway or boulevard installations, uniform form and colour create immediate architectural presence.
Specimen Focal Point: Positioned in open lawn or forecourt settings, a single advanced specimen commands the entire landscape.
Residential & Estate Shade: Broad canopy provides substantial summer shade over entertaining areas, pools, and terraces.
Public & Commercial Landscapes: Scaled planting in parks, civic projects, and mixed-use developments where seasonal drama is required.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (feature/avenue): 8 to 12m
Best Planting Season: Autumn to early spring (dormant season)
Soil & Drainage: Adaptable to a wide range of soils including clay, loam and sand; prefers well-drained to moderately drained soils; tolerates some drought once established
Establishment Care: Water deeply and regularly for the first two years to establish a strong root system, particularly through dry periods and summer heat. Apply a layer of mulch 75 to 100mm deep around the root zone, keeping it clear of the trunk, to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
