Lombardy Poplars (Populus nigra 'Italica') in yellow autumn colours.
The Lombardy Poplar is an Italian cultivar that has many erect branches close together so as to appear to form a single column. This style of growth is known as 'fastigiate', which comes from Latin, meaning a sweeping broom.
Due to the tall and thin nature of the trees, they are often planted as windbreak. The Lombardy cultivar was introduced into the UK by the Earl of Rochford in 1758. It is easily propagated by cuttings, and has since been spread to most countries with temperate climates.
