Populus. The Poplars 



THESE trees grow rapidly, are quickly effective and inexpensive. They thrive in ahnost any soil and 

 withstand well the smoke of cities. Where quick shade or temporary effects are desired Poplars are 

 a good tree to use. The narrow-growing, upright-branched sorts are favorites in architectural arrange- 

 nents and for tall screens w^here there is little ground space allotted. 



Populus alba. var. Bolleana. Boll's Poplar. 

 ;M). In habit resembles the Lombardy Poplar, but 

 eaves are silvery white beneath. Useful for the 

 vime purposes.

Lombardy Poplar 



Populus Nigra, var. Fastigl\ta; syn. P. Ital- 

 ica Nigra. (L). A tall, columnar form that is in 

 contrast to the more rounded outline of other trees. 

 For producing this contrast it is much valued in 

 collections of trees on large law^ns or public grounds. 

 In smaller areas it also accentuates certain vistas or 

 makes a more pronounced effect when used individ- 

 ually in certain locations where a tree of this type 

 fills a much wanted need. Being low-branched and 

 of quick growth make it especially well suited for 

 screen planting. It is surprising how soon a plant- 

 ing of these trees will shut out those unsightly 

 objects which so often make certain views rather 

 undesirable. When planting for this purpose set 

 the trees from four to six feet apart. At the latter 

 distance there will still be some space between the 

 trees when they are grown up; so when a complete 

 screen is desired we suggest planting four feet apart. 

 For certain purposes and in certain locations these 

 Poplars can also be satisfactorily used to produce 

 formal effects. When you desire to keep them from 

 growing too high, we suggest cutting off a little of 

 the top every few years. See illustrations at foot 

 of page.
