Rowan and Wayfaring Tree


Rowan or mountain ash is covered in creamy-white bunches of flowers at the moment.  The leaves are pinnately divided and the flowers have dark anthers on the stamens.


The wayfaring tree is also in flower looking rather similar but the anthers are pale and the leaves are totally different


Veins on the rather furry leaves are deeply indented on the top surface.


Looking at the underside of the leaf, the veins are very prominent.
