Columnar Swedish Aspen The dark green leaves have a lighter silvery-green underside providing both visual interest and a soothing sound in the breeze and tremble with the faintest whisper of wind, creating the same pleasant rustling sounds as the leaves of Quaking Aspen. It is well adapted to very cold climates, but needs adequate moisture. It is best suited for small yards, as a screen or a vertical accent. The fall color can range from orange to red. |
