The seed appearance gives the tree its common name. Usually in damp soils or in river beds. Sometimes planted to stabilize river banks, but they may in fact cause erosion by creating dense thickets which divert flows against the opposite bank and may spread downstream away from the planting site.
Produced using Forrest Keeling's patented RPM Root Production Method ® technology for exceptional growth and survivability. Cottonwood spreads by root suckers around the parent plant, forming large thickets. Spread over greater distances occurs when dumped material or branches detached in floods take root.
