Poplar

Poplar is a type of fast-growing deciduous tree found in the Northern Hemisphere, valued for its lightweight, flexible wood often used in paper production, furniture, and pulp manufacturing. It thrives in moist, well-drained soils and can reach heights of up to 50-60 feet. Poplar trees are also known for their distinct, rounded leaves and ability to regenerate quickly from their roots, making them useful in reforestation and windbreak projects. Additionally, some species are planted for ornamental purposes or as shade trees in urban environments.
