| 0 | Ames 35740 | Iroquois County Conservation Area | Sassafras albidum (Nutt.) Nees | Illinois, United States | NC7 |  | Not Available | 2021 | COLLECTED | 08/27/2021 | Iroquois County State Wildlife Area located approximately 4.5 miles northeast of Beaverville T29N R11W NE1/4 Sec. 22 and also NW1/4 Sec. 13 | 40.98890900, -87.58503400 | 195 | Edge of hardwood forest, along roadside. | Wild material | Sassafras albidum is an early successional, vigorously suckering native tree found throughout southeastern North America stretching from eastern Texas to Maine. In Illinois, the species is only found in the southeastern portion (two-thirds) of the state. Sassafras is found in nature typically in dry to slightly mesic woodland edges and fencelines. Sassafrass is dioecious where male and female flowers are on separate plants. Noteble characteristics include oddly shaped leaves; a wide vareity of attractive fall colors (red, orange, or yellow); and stems that have an attractive spicy odor when scratched. Highly prized fruits by birds are single-seeded black drupes with bright red pedicels that mature in late summer. This accession was collected on the northwest edge (USDA Cold Hardiness Zone 5b) of the species range and may potentially contain genetics for winter hardiness exceeding that of typical Sassafras. Specimens sampled in nature ranged from 20-40' in height and 5-8" d.b.h. and the percentage of specimens suspected to be of reproductive age actually noted with fruits at the time of sampling (2021) was estimated at only 5-10%. It is possible that pollination on other potentially female specimens did not occur. During a grow out of seedlings at the North Central Regional Plant Introduction Station in Ames, Iowa in 2022, fall color on potted specimens peaked the first week in October. In comparison to Ames 35741, genetics of this accession peaked color 5-7 days prior and seedlings originating from sample 982-3 were all reddish in color, while seedlings from all other samples (982-1 and 982-2) were a mix of yellow; yellow-orange; and reddish-orange. | 2120344 | Ames 35740 |

Some growing in shade of oak forest were sparse suckering and open branching compared to open grown specimens that were extremely dense with suckers. | 2115977 | Ames 35668 |
