Hybrid Black Poplar more than likely the very common T.T. 32 'Balsam Spire' it's a hybrid of Western Balsam Poplar (Populus trichocarpa) and Eastern Balsam Poplar (Populus tacamahaca)

 

Hillier's Manual calls the tree 'Balsam Spire' (P. T.T. 32) (P. Tacatricho 32)

Populus Canescens 'Tower' ?

Habit: Sub-fastigate. Check.

Leaf: as per P.canescens, Grey Poplar, but with extended central Lobe. Check.

 

[All Black and Balsam Pops, and hybrids thereof, can be discounted due to their having simple geometric leaf shapes with finely toothed edges and no sub-lobes or indentations.]

That'd not fair, I had already decided that trying to identify poplars was life sapping and unsatisfying, and here you are showing that it is possible and (very marginally) rewarding.

 

Curse you! Thank you!

Only on a rainy day and only for the obsessive.:001_smile:
