The Poplar Black tree is a beautiful and imposing tree with whispering green leaves turning yellow in Autumn. Fast-growing deciduous spreading tree with dark bark and heart-shaped bronze leaves turning to bright green when mature. Catkins are borne in March and April. Poplar tree is an excellent windbreak.
A rare variety, Black poplar thrives on river banks but can be grown in most large spaces. Do not plant close to buildings as they have an extensive root system. It is most prevalent in Shropshire, Cheshire, Somerset, and East Anglia and grows best in boggy conditions, near ditches and floodplains. Fully hardy, preferring sun and deep fertile well-drained soil.
