Populus lindleyana, Carr. (P. laurifolia var. viminalis, Dipp.). Fig. 3144. lvs. mostly willow-like, long-elliptic, distinctly acuminate, or oval-elliptic on the older shoots, roundish at base, with pubescent petioles, fls. and fr. Perhaps a horticultural group, to which are probably to be referred the garden names P. crispa (with more or less crisped or crinkled margins), P. Dudleyi and P. salicifolia. As seen in cult, in this country (and very infrequent) it is a small or medium-sized tree, of slender growth and with a somewhat weeping habit when old. It is very like the native Populus fortissimo, but is readily distinguished by its angled or furrowed sts., and less tapering and crisped lvs. which are conspicuously finely reticulated and whitened beneath. The color of its foliage is grayish green, and in this respect it affords a contrast to the native species. P. fortissima seems to be rather the better tree of the two, although P. Lindleyana has a more striking appearance. The botanical status of these trees is not clearly denned. By some, P. Lindleyana is referred to P. laurifolia, but the tree in cult, seems to be distinct.
