This tree grows strictly upright and left unpruned, it might reach the size of its parent plant (up to 25m), so pruning is recommended for keeping it smaller. Pollarding is best practice to keep this plant beautiful; in early Spring, cut back last year’s growth, leaving about 10-20cm. The tree will have a much stronger root system which will result in extra large leaves (up to 20cm) on deep burgundy black canes. In Autumn, its leaves turn a gorgeous bronze-orange colour.

The Populus Deltoides Purple Tower is a very hardy tree, suitable for most soils, it like a full sun position.

To encourage your Purple Tower to produce larger leaves it is recommended to prune hard at the start of Spring. Please note the roots can be vigorous, so don’t plant them close to drains or footpaths.
