Yeah, but my point is we have a lot of healthy large trees around still that drop tons of seed. All of my ash seeds are hand collected by me…except for the blue ash I ordered.
Still have some old healthy ones around here. I collect a lot of seeds every year. The young trees grow like weeds. I have one that has already grown about 2ft out of the central leader this spring.
Mine just started to die down yesterday after being unbearable for 5-7 days. Give it a week. The pollen is bad here too. Sheets of yellow-green everywhere.
You're definitely a cool spot. 77.7F there today and I had 77.9F. Some summers I struggle to hit 90F...will be interesting to see if you can pull one off.
