Deciduous Trees
Quaking aspen - populus tremuloides
- 40-50’ x 30’ Full sun
- We love this tree for Mountain or Colorado style landscapes- match great with ornamental grasses, evergreens, and dark green shrubs
- Great small-medium size tree
- Striking white bark with eye shaped buds on trunk(also a great substitute for river birch)
- Dark green glossy leaves that turn bright yellow in fall
- Although it is short lived, the bloom is a fuzzy catkin that is beautiful in morning sunlight
- Multi stem tree that can sucker to create a “grove” of aspen- ‘Niobrara’ is a cultivar that suckers less often
