Hi all,

In Chicago and I'm sure elsewhere, we have these trees that give off
white floaty thingies, that blow all over in the wind. I think they
just finished their 3-week run until next year. I heard that they are
from a "female-type of a certain tree that no-one plants anymore" just
because of these annoying floaty things. Anyone know the name of the
tree?

TIA

It's a Poplar called Cottonwood.
