Populus tremuloides
Common name: Quaking Aspen
Quaking Aspen is native to the Chicago area. Displays yellow fall color, cream-colored bark, and trembling leaves. Best placed in full sun in a naturalized setting. Grows very fast and suckers vigorously. CAUTION!! One plant will get you 10 plants in 2 years and 40 plants in 4 years! Also, deer (bucks) like to rub their antlers on the trunks. Quaking Aspen is one of the few trees in our nursery that the bucks bother.
