Hello again
Just a plea to note that 'native to Ontario' can be meaningless in a
province as big and diverse as Ontario.
Consider, as Bohdan Kowalyk stated, that it is only native to a very
tiny bit of SW Ontario. Also consider that it has a larger USA range
and that you have to be very careful of what genetic sources (both
geographic and diverse seedling vs clonal) are available and how well
they will be adapted to your local area.

While not fully pertinent to the discussion, Ohio Buckeye, (Aesculus
glabra) is now considered by many experts to be native to Ontario.
