I am located in Iowa, selling some fast growing trees in states east of the rockies. The fast growth can be used for wildlife habitat, screening, windbreaks, shade, and other uses. 10 for $160 dollars, planting height is 5 feet tall and will be over ten feet tall by fall. more pics at this link: fast growing trees photos

If those are the hybrid poplars they will send roots 70 feet to your water,,septic tank, sewer pipe , swimmingpool, they will go under your house to get to the sewer. and are hell to stop, but they sure will grow fast, 10 to 20 feet per year. this all took place in two years, be careful what you wish for,,

interesting site. can you give us any more information on lifespans, size at maturity, etc? 40+ years of useful life, with mature height around 70'. A few more facts about this tree on my Factsheet.

I agree that full sized trees with aggressive root systems should not be planted on/by a septic system, in my faq I recommend 100 feet away. Something like this is turned into a benefit when using for buffer strips and other places holding soil with a strong root system. My Ornamental Snake Willow comes in a smaller size, so that one's root system is not as vibrant.

Add in a box of free Twinkies and you'd be able to retire in no time with all the loot you'd have rolling in, especially selling east of the Rockies.

I think I would end up eating all the Twinkies before I got them sent out with the trees.
