IMAGE SHOWS A MATURE TREE.
Add striking contrast and movement to your landscape with the Silver Poplar, a fast-growing deciduous tree known for its shimmering foliage and upright form. This hardy poplar features dark green leaves with silvery-white undersides that flutter beautifully in the wind, creating a dynamic, almost shimmering effect in the summer sun.
Silver Poplar is well-suited for larger properties, shelterbelts, or as a bold specimen tree in open spaces. It thrives in a wide range of soils and is tolerant of drought, wind, and urban conditions once established. While its growth is vigorous, it can be managed with occasional pruning and is best planted where its spreading roots won't interfere with structures or sidewalks.
Ideal for those looking to quickly establish shade and visual impact, Silver Poplar combines hardiness, adaptability, and ornamental appeal.
