Russian olives and autumn olives are invading our Canadian open fields at an unprecedented speed, we need some aggressive native trees to keep these invaders in check. Box elder maple can fit the bill. It is native to Canada and it is fast-growing. It is also a prolific seeder. Although it is poor at producing maple syrup, it is good for feeding birds and beneficial insects. This small tree is suitable for open spaces, as well as shelter belts and hedgerows.
