Description

American aspen (Poplus tremuloides) is a deciduous tree native to North America. It grows rapidly and can reach heights up to 30 meters, and its trunk has a diameter of up to one meter. Its bark is smooth and whitish-green with yellowish patches. The leaves are broadly oval about 6-8 cm long and 2-4 cm wide. In the fall they turn a brilliant yellow, orange, or red. American aspen is the most widely distributed tree species in the whole country. They prefer moist soils, but they can also tolerate drought and are found in wetlands, prairies, and meadows. Its bark is naturally resistant to insects and decaying, making it a popular choice for firewood.
