LOMBARDY POPLAR 
(Populus nigra italica) 
Lombardy poplar is not a long lived tree, and 
not one to use as a specimen. But it does 
grow like mad, and for a quick-forming tall 
screen that occupies a minimum of space there 
is nothing else like it. Economical, too, with 
foliage that grows right down to the ground. 
We have found mederate-sized plants in this 
variety transplant better, live longer, and over- 
take the big boys.
