Populus simonii, commonly known as Simon’s Poplar, is a deciduous tree native to China. Typically growing 10 to 15 meters tall, it has a fast-growing, pyramidal shape and broad, dark green leaves that turn yellow in autumn. The tree produces small, inconspicuous flowers in spring, followed by fluffy, wind-dispersed seeds. Populus simonii thrives in moist, well-drained soils and full sun, making it ideal for riparian zones and landscapes in temperate climates. Known for its straight trunk and rapid growth, it is often used in forestry for timber, erosion control, or as a shade tree in parks and urban areas.
