Black Hills Spruce vs Tulip PoplarPicea glauca var. densata Liriodendron tulipifera ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW 
Black Hills Spruce is a subspecies of White Spruce native to the Black Hills of South Dakota. It has a strongly conical form, slower growth rate and denser foliage than typical white spruce, making it preferable as a specimen tree for smaller suburban lawns. It also responds well to pruning, and can be used as a hedge or even bonsai.
Tulip Poplar is the perfect shade tree for wide open spaces. It has a shallow and extensive root system, so ensure you give it space to grow. The attractive and showy, yellow-orange, tulip shaped flowers are where this tree gets its name. A top CO2 absorbing species. Experts think this tree may help climate change more than others.
