[Eric-Orlando FL]

Anyone familiar with or growing Zanthoxylum ailanthoides, Asian Prickly-Ash Tree? It is in Rutaceae and a relative of Z. clava-herculis (Hercules Club or Prickly-Ash) and Z. fagara (Wild Lime), both native in Florida. They are also distant relatives to citrus. Zanthoxylum ailanthoides is native from SE China to southern Japan, Taiwan and to the Philippines.

I could garden for a thousand years and still hear of something I had not heard of previously. Any chance you have a pic laying around somewhere. Then maybe I will recognize it.
