Fast-Growing Privacy Wind Break
Why Lombardy Poplar Trees?
Block the wind, lower your heating bills, and enjoy your yard throughout the summer and winter, all at the same time. With the Lombardy Poplar, it's possible - simply plant one every 5 to 8 feet, and you'll have a dense barrier that can reach amazing heights quickly.
Nothing stops the wind faster. Lombardy Poplars commonly grow 6 feet per year, with some reaching growth rates of 9 to 12 feet. You often see Lombardys planted around farm fields to keep topsoil from blowing away - and they'll work just as effectively for your home.
Plus, their Mediterranean look adds value to your property. These plush Poplars grow in an elegant, columnar fashion. Use them to line your driveway, the road or the edges of your property. Line your Northern borders for a full, voluminous look that's enviable.

Healthy trees and prompt customer service!
The first shipment, the carrier did them dirty. 3/6 trees came in broken or bent bad. But I took photos of everything and uploaded to the form and FGT got back to me IMMEDIATELY. They didn’t even go back and forth with me. Their response was a confirmation number for the replacement order. Incredibly prompt and efficient which was amazing because the trees were for my husband for Father’s Day. Couldn’t be happier with the customer service. And the trees look to be in good health, so we can’t wait to see them grow and provide us with great privacy!
Great customer service
Great customer service. Trees were shipped 3 times before they came undamaged. Thank you for the prompt shipping and understanding.
Good customer service
Ordered these trees into the past without issue but this order of two poplars were both broke when they arrived. Customer service was able to help me out with a refund since they did not have any more in stock. Understanding that sometimes this stuff happens, I will be looking forward to when they are available again. Would have been 5 stars if they were able to replace right away.
Growing Great!
Not my first tree from FGT, and the experience was just as great as the first time. Trees come well packaged, healthy and at or above the size you ordered. This particular tree was shipped during record-breaking, triple-digit heat, arriving on a 103-degree day. I unpacked it, and it had dropped a few leaves from the heat. I gave it a little water, and got it planted within a day or two. The first picture is shortly after it was planted. The second picture is about a week later. The third picture shows the new growth already shooting out!
Strong healthy trees
The delivery time was excellent and the trees were very healthy. We had 90 mph. Straight-line winds and they stood strong like a trooper. I’m very pleased with these beautiful trees.
