AILANTHUS altissima (A. glandulosa). Tree-of-Heaven. Deciduous tree. All Zones. Native to China. Planted a century ago in California’s gold country where it now runs wild…. Inconspicuous greenish flowers are usually followed by handsome clusters of red-brown, winged fruits in late summer and fall…. Often condemned as a weed tree because it suckers profusely, but it must be praised for its ability to create beauty and shade under adverse conditions—drought, hot winds, and every type of difficult soil.
