POPULUS-— Poplar 
Populus italica nigra (LOMBARDY POPLAR). 
The slender, upright form of growth makes these 
trees especially desirable for road plantings, prop- 
erty borders or along a stream. Quick-growing, 
they make a good screen when planted close to- 
gether. The soft patter of the leaves as the Summer 
breeze ripples through them makes the Lombardy 
Poplar especially delightful. F
