Abstract

Eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides virginiana) is one of the fastest-growing trees of commercial importance native to this country. The wood is in demand for a great variety of uses and usually brings good stumpage prices. Rapid growth and relatively high value make cottonwood a very desirable tree to grow in plantations.
