Aspen through the year

Aspen is distinctive at all times of year.

Some Aspen clones stand out in the autumn, when their leaves turn bright yellow. Seen here with silver birch.

There are at least 3 clones in this shot

Not all clones develop bright autumn colours. Some lose their leaves early, others later. Two clones are visible in this picture taken on 25th September. The one on the left is still in full leaf , the one on the right is leafless.
