It reaches heights of 65-80 feet (20-24 meters) with a spread that forms a broad, rounded crown. In youth, oregon ash experiences rapid growth, which tapers as it matures. Male and female reproductive structures are found on separate individual trees, making this species dioecious. Oregon ash thrives in moist environments, particularly near waterways, and exhibits longevity, potentially living up to 250 years.
