    • Additional Information

    'Patmore' is a vigorous male, seedless tree and is considered to be superior to many Green Ash cultivars, including 'Marshall's Seedles'. An unattractive ash flower gall (formed by mites) can develop on male flowers and persists into winter. Emerald Ash Borer is severely affecting all species of this genus. Damage can be prevented with the appropriate pesticide, but the treatment cost will eventually exceed replacement cost.
