Black Poplar (Populus Nigra)   Black poplar is native and is a massive tree, thick fissured trunk that can be found on floodplains. Easily grown almost anywhere and tolerates waterlogged and heavy ground. Not so good in very dry positions.  Black poplar leaves are shiny, bright green and underneath slightly paler.  Leaves look almost heart-shaped with long, tapered tips. In Spring they emerge a bronze reddish tinge before turning green and in Autumn turn a clear yellow colour.

Can grow to 25m (80ft) and like willows poplars have very vigorous and invasive root systems.

Black poplars needs thorough watering after planting and a good mulch.
