In the Marais Poitevin (France), pollarded ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) with a remarkable root system. The planting of ash trees has allowed - thanks to their roots - the bank preservation of the differently-sized canals of the "Green Venice". Dans le Marais Poitevin (France), frênes communs têtards pourvus d'un remarquable système racinaire. Leur implantation a permis - grâce à leurs racines - le maintien des berges des canaux de différentes tailles du Marais "mouillé": achenaux, rigoles et conches.
