At present, in many cities of central Russia, urban woody plants of the species Fraxinus excelsior L. are affected by Agrilus planipennis Fairm., which leads to the drying of the plant from the top of the crown. As a result, in urban plantings, ash completely loses its aesthetic appearance, although some of its protective properties are retained due to the ability of common ash to give numerous stump shoots. This leads to the formation of a bush of fast growing shoots. The aim of the work was to study the technology of creating arbosculptures and topiary forms on the example of Fraxinus excelsior L.
