poplar trees
my husband brought home 20 small poplar trees from job. they were going to
the trash. they are about 4 ft tall. I had thought about planting them along back fence. I did a search and got a little info on them but I always get great advice here . I would like to know if they are hard to get started and do they need a great amount of water after established. Also are they fast growers and do they do well in this area.. I live in Liberty Hill. Thanks for any help and input. crystal |

If he brought these back from the more northerly, colder latitudes then, no they will not grow here, or at least I have never heard of it. If they are Cottonwoods, then they will grow but need supplemental water if not planted along a creek or low area. Rusty Mase Austin, Texas |
