The Rowan tree, also known as Mountain Ash or Quickbeam (latin: Sorbus spp.. ) are small trees native throughout the cool, temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. The wood is dense, strong, and resilient; often used for carving or walking sticks.

In Celtic mythology, the Rowan was the Tree of Life.

In Norse mythology, a Rowan tree bends over a fast-flowing river to rescue Thor from being swept away to the underworld.

Other species of note: Sitka Mountain Ash (latin: Sorbus sitchensis), native to the Pacific Northwest.

The Rowan tree symbolizes courage, wisdom, and protection.
