[CANUFNET] FW: Green Ash in Alberta and Saskatchewan

[GAIL RANKIN]

Hi Andi

There are no natural stands of green ash in Edmonton.  Some have naturalized over the years but most started out as boulevard trees planted by the City of Edmonton.

Hi Andy, 

If you are looking for natural stands best bet is to look in the Qu'Appele Valley which stretches across Saskatchewan. Specifically I would focus in on the chain lakes around Fort Qu'Appelle. 

Hope that helps.

Hello everyone! 



My name is Andi Noakes and I am a graduate student from the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, U.S. I am coming to Alberta and Saskatchewan in June to look for natural green ash stands, but I am hoping to find some before I leave so that I am not wandering around aimlessly. These provinces are at the edge of this tree’s range, but I feel strongly that there are some natural stands in the Edmonton area and hopefully some in SK as well. 



Please feel free to email or call me if you know where I might be able to find some. I would like to get about 30 individual samples per location, but I am willing to take much less, especially at the edge of the range. 



Thank you all for your help!
