Populus tremula, the European Aspen, is a vigorous deciduous tree known for its rounded, coarsely toothed leaves that shimmer and rustle in the slightest breeze due to flattened petioles. It typically reaches heights of 25 to 40 meters, forming an open, rounded crown. Emerging with copper tones, the foliage matures to a cool gray-green before turning brilliant yellow in autumn. This hardy species thrives in full sun and moist, fertile soils, making it ideal for large wildlife gardens.
