cottonwood
A cottonwood is a type of tree belonging to the genus Populus, and is native to North America, Europe, and western Asia. It is characterized by its fast growth, tall stature, and broad leaves. The cottonwood tree is so called because its seeds are coated with a cotton-like substance which helps in their dispersal by wind. Its wood is used in making furniture and the tree itself is often planted for windbreaks and shade.
