Quaking Aspen

30 second plant tip of the day: Quaking Aspen - Populus tremuloides

This is a superior tree for cold northern regions. It is most attractive in groves, and as components in windrows and shelterbelts. It will stand alone as a columnar tree in the suburban environment. Tall narrow form is ideal for filling gaps between tall buildings. Somewhat adapted for street and boulevard planting. A great foreground tree against dark background of evergreen conifers. Ease of cultivation is suited to naturalistic plantings in prairies or open space habitat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRxCU3hMHUI&list=UUnMVYDvOo82j7XF0Hv1A_iA
