Can you find one five-figure number with distinct digits between 1 and 9 which satisfies all four of the following equations?

ASPEN x 2 = BEASTS
LARCH x 3 = STICKY
CEDAR x 4 = STATIC
PLANE x 5 = NACRED

Repeated letters within an equation indicate the replication of digits. However, the same letter in different equations does not necessarily refer to the same digit.

An alternative, to remain within the forest...

PICEA*9=POTATO

PICEA -- a genus of temperate and Arctic evergreen, coniferous trees, including the Norway spruce and the American black and white spruces.
