Hill Poplar vs Silver Leaf Willow
Populus x Hill
Salix alba sericea
ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
SOLD OUT
Hill Poplar is a hardy, fast-growing tree with a narrow crown. Hill Poplars function well as a privacy screen or windbreak.
This attractive, long-lived shade tree is a great choice for home and commercial consumers alike, as it requires little pruning or maintenance care.
Hill Poplar has largely been replaced by more desirable hybrid poplar varieties that are more resistant to disease.
Native to North America, Silver Leaf Willow has orangish bark and long, silvery grey leaves. Bees and other insects are attracted to its flowers.
Popular as an ornamental tree for parks, it is also used as a shelterbelt species. It may not be as cold hardy as some of the other willow varieties, however.
