LOMBARDY POPLAR 
Grows from 40 to 80 feet in height. Introduced from 
Italy soon after the Revolutionary War. Is extensively 
t 
planted in fine estates, along drive ways and for back¬ 
grounds. Gives a most artistic effect as it catches the eye 
from a far distance, on account of standing out prom¬ 
inently against the sky line. Tall, slender and columnar. 
Its branches are crowded, all growing upward. Fills a 
place that no other tree can fill.
