Sundancer Poplar
Eastern Cottonwood

The Sundancer Poplar is a fast-growing, columnar hybrid that is resistant to Bronze Leaf Disease. Developed at the Agroforestry Centre in Indian Head, Saskatchewan, this cold hardy tree is well-suited to the Canadian prairies and northern regions.

Adaptable to various soil conditions and drought-tolerant once established, the Sundancer Poplar is an excellent choice for lining properties and roads or creating an attractive hedge.

This fast and tall growing tree has an open, spreading crown and is more suited to waterside planting than other aspens and poplars.

Commonly found in floodplains, stream valleys and lake shores, this tree quickly fills in reclamation areas.

In order to reproduce and grow effectively, Eastern Cottonwood relies on the natural flooding cycle to ensure they are not out-competed by weeds and other plants.
