While there are 25 species of trees, shrubs and grasses that are prohibited to plant in Ashland,
there are many more Firewise alternatives that can be planted that are less ignitable in a wildfire.

Many local nurseries also have more extensive Firewise plant lists, based upon the plants they have available. Please consult with your local nursery for Firewise recommendations.
The Firewise Plant List was developed in collaboration with Ashland Fire & Rescue, the Wildfire Safety Commission, Ashland's Water Conservation Specialist and Ashland's Bee City USA.
