Pyramidal Mountain Ash / Sorbus aucuparia 'Fastigiata'


On my last visit to the Calgary Zoo, on 14 October 2014, I photographed the beautiful red berries of this Pyramidal Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia 'Fastigiata'). Native from Europe to Asia Minor.
“Pyramidal Mountain Ash features showy clusters of white flowers held atop the branches in mid spring. It has dark green foliage throughout the season. The oval compound leaves turn an outstanding orange in the fall. The orange (red) fruits are held in abundance in spectacular clusters from early fall right through to late winter. This is a relatively low maintenance tree, and usually looks its best without pruning.
Pyramidal Mountain Ash will grow to be about 20 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 7 feet. It has a low canopy with a typical clearance of 3 feet from the ground. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 50 years or more.
This tree should only be grown in full sunlight. It is very adaptable to both dry and moist locations.”

I've only been on Flickr the last half hour, but I see that they have still not fixed the "views" problem that has been going on for many hours now. The Stats for Your Account (only available to the old Pro account members) seems to be working OK, but the number of views under each individual image is either stuck at 0 or counts just a very few of the actual number. Apparently, Staff do know about this issue.

Looks like we had maybe 2-3" of snow yesterday and overnight. As I type, there is just very fine snow falling, barely noticeable. I think it may be very slippery out there, so it will probably be another day at home. It's 1°C right now, supposedly climbing to 3°C this afternoon. I was hoping that the snow on my car would all melt, but it doesn't look like that will happen.
