Will, like i said i do not have much experience collecting from the wild as the conditions here are unlikely to warrant collecting, in my post i included a caveat emptor(right phrase i think) in that i said "if collecting from the wild..." i do understand why you collected the tree, i do like the trunk but feel that with my lack of experience in this department i would not pick it as a choice, in 3d you never know though
I do have one ash that i collected in the wild due to its perfect nebari and reasonably tapered trunk, i will try and get a decent photo of it at some point, its still in a nursery pot at 1 year collected + about 5 years old.

Regards
Rowan
