Your tree may be queer

Ash trees are found mainly in the eastern and southeastern areas of the U.S. Most species bear male and female flowers on separate trees. Flowering ash, Fraxinus ornus, bears bisexual flowers, each containing male and female reproductive organs.


I'm used to seeing the term hermaphroditic for things like this, but the thought of bisexual trees really amuses me.

Though our ash tree is not queer. It is very male and likes to drop its pollen bombs everywhere.
