#A1606
Ailanthus altissima

Tree of Heaven (Chinese sumac, Paradise-tree, Copal-tree)
This Chinese native was introduced to the US from England in the early 1700's and has become naturalized over most of the US. The tree prefers moist loamy soils, but can easily adapt to a wide variety of conditions. So adaptable is it, that it has been used to reclaim strip mines, where the soil is nearly impossible. The leaves are 1-3ft. long and resemble a palm tree. Hardy to -30F (-34.4C); height: 20ft.
#A1606 Packet $9.00, Approximately 100 seeds
