fairy tree. Almost all kinds of tree found in the Celtic countries have been thought to have special powers or to serve as the abode of the fairies, especially the magical trio of
oak,
ash, and thorn. Next in rank are the fruit-bearing trees
apple and
hazel, followed by the
alder,
elder, holly, and willow. The esteem given different trees varies in different parts of the Celtic world; on the Isle of
Man, the phrase ‘fairy tree’ denotes the tramman [
elder]. D. A. MacManus devotes a chapter to Irish fairy trees in
The Middle Kingdom (London, 1959).
