Leave aspen where they can thrive in cool temperatures, and moist soils.
Leave aspen where they can maintain their natural form as a large colony organism.
Leave aspen in their native habitat and let them be your siren call to explore and enjoy Colorado's great outdoors.

Well said in every way - nothing like seeing them where they belong. I hope nurseries will grow specimen-sized native and adapted ornamental trees, that will fulfill the same role as many think aspens should be used in.
ReplyDeleteThe reddish leaf on top of the golden leaf - perfect.
Nice to hear from you, David! I agree... I'd love to see some native hawthorns in production!
