Sažetak
The research on the tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle) distribution within the Osijek
city area was carried out in the summer period of 2017. In total of 589 individuals of the tree of
heaven on 130 locations were recorded. The trees grew individually or in groups, mostly on
abandoned places, and were rarely found in well-maintained areas. In the vicinity of the tree of
heaven, mostly perennial herbaceous weeds were found. These plants thrive in different types of
habitats. In order to prevent the uncontrolled spread of this invasive plant in the urban environment, it
is necessary to continuously monitor and timely remove the tree of heaven individuals. Moreover, it is
important to continuously educate the general public about the adverse impact of this species on the
environment and biological diversity.
