* A strong fibre obtained from the leaves is used for cordage and brushes. It also has numerous sharp needle-like spines produced on the leaf stems; these protect the stem growing point from browsing animals.

* The mature trees grow to a height of 15-25 m, rarely up to 34 m, with a trunk diameter of up to 1.2 m. Muricata has been used in plantations with resultant growth rates higher than in the wild .

It is typically found over calcareous substrates such as limestone , growing on limestone slopes and in moist valley soils, at elevations of 120–600 m. * Fraxinus quadrangulata ( Blue Ash ) is a species of Fraxinus native primarily to the Midwestern...
