California Ash Fraxinus dipetala
Foothill Ash is a commonly occuring native riparian habitat shrub or small tree. It is sometimes used as a garden tree, and when the foliage canopy is pruned up to expose the trunks, it makes an attractive multi-trunk tree or garden specimen. The showy flower clusters in late spring make it useful as a flowering accent tree in a native garden setting. Its height rarely exceeds 25'. Native to California.

A Fraxinus dipetala in Lake County is registered as a California Big Tree. It measures 32 feet high, with a trunk circumference of 39 inches and a crown spread of 34 feet for a total of 80 points.
