The Singleleaf Ash (Anomala) has a moderate life span relative to most other plant species and a moderate growth rate. At maturity, the typical Singleleaf Ash (Anomala) will reach up to 20 feet high, with a maximum height at 20 years of 20 feet.
The Singleleaf Ash (Anomala) is usually not commercially available except under contract. It can be propagated by bare root, container, seed. It has a slow ability to spread through seed production and the seedlings have high vigor.
