The tree that the webpage is referring to is what is typically called (in the United States) European Mountain Ash, one of its folk names is Rowan and its Latin name is Sorbus aucuparia. It is believed to be a plant with magical properties, specifically those related to magical power, psychic power, healing, success and protection.
