It is distinguished from the European aspen, above, by much larger and thicker leaves which are bluish or rusty-white beneath, more ovate in outline, with larger and more spreading teeth, stouter leaf-stalks and larger leaf-buds. In its. 14. Populus trentuloides {% nat. size). normal or erect form, it is rarely cultivated, but the weeping va- rieties, under a variety of names, are frequently seen. Most, and perhaps all of these varieties originated in Europe, where the tree, like the cottonwood and the common aspen, were earl}^ introduced. The habit of the tree is too stiff and the foliage most too heavy to make the best \^'eeping subjects, however. One of the best of these weeping forms is that known as Parasol de St. Julien. The characteristic weak or zigzag winter twigs of the weeping varie- ties of this species are shown in Fig. i. A is the form sold as P. grandidentata pendula; b is Parasol de St. Julien, and this twig shows a flower-bud midway. These two forms, it will be seen, have a stiffer or straighter habit than the two following. C is the form sold as P. Grceca pendula, and d the one called P. nigra Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Cornell University.
