Hill Poplar vs Eastern Red Cedar
Populus x Hill
Juniperus virginiana
ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
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Hill Poplar has largely been replaced by more desirable hybrid poplar varieties that are more resistant to disease.
Eastern Red Cedar is native to eastern Canada and is actually a variety of juniper, not cedar. Its pyramidal crown, low hanging branches, and dense, compact foliage makes it an ideal windbreak or shelterbelt tree.
Eastern Red Cedar will attract wildlife to your yard and provide food and shelter for multiple varieties of birds. If you are on the east coast looking to create a windbreak, consider Eastern Red Cedar.
Note: This species is currently unavailable. Grow your own using Eastern Red Cedar seeds at SeedTime.ca.
