The Populus Alba (White Popular) is a medium-sized deciduous plant, growing to heights of up to 16-27 m (rarely more), with a trunk up to 1 m diameter and a broad rounded crown. The bark is smooth and greenish-white to greyish-white with characteristic diamond-shaped dark marks on young trees. The young shoots are covered with whitish-grey down, including the small buds. The leaves are 4-15 cm long, five-lobed, with a thick covering of white scurfy down on both sides but thicker underneath; this layer wears off the upper side but not the lower, which stays white until autumn leaf fall.

• The Populus alba is a deciduous plant
• Foliage five lobed, with a thick covering of white scurfy down on both sides but thicker underneath; this layer wears off the upper side in summer
• Flowers are small catkins
• Ultimate Height - 60ft (20m)
• Average Growth/Year*- 1.5ft per year
*Average Growth/Year= Average growth per year in first 10-20 years
