Populus x ACWS151
Northwest Poplar is a large and fast-growing tree. Due to its wide spread, this tree makes a great shade or shelterbelt tree. Northwest Poplar tolerates partial shade, drought, and most types of soil. This poplar produces no fuzz.
Northwest Poplar continues to be popular as a shelterbelt species due to the great cost savings that come from the wide spread of the branches. It is a staff favorite because of the wonderful shade it provides all summer long.
Note: do not plant near buildings or buried services.
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.
