Versatile, beautiful and functional: invaluable for many kinds of landscapes, rows and environmental uses.
Very fast growth, a slender habit and a great capacity to absorb water and pollutants make poplars ideal for buffer strips, windbreaks and the renaturalisation of peri-urban areas. The rustle of their leaves is one of the most recognisable sounds of the river landscape.
Their leaves tremble in the slightest breeze thanks to a flattened stalk — hence "trembling like a leaf". The poplar is also the tree the Mona Lisa is painted on: a panel of Lombardy poplar.
