Populus trichocarpa Populus trichocarpa (black cottonwood; also known as western balsam poplar or California poplar), is a deciduous broadleaf tree species native to western North America.It is used for timber, and is notable as a model organism in plant biology. Its full genome sequence was published in 2006.t is normally fairly short-lived, but some trees may live for up to 400 years (Forbes 2006). A cottonwood discovered in Haines, Alaska set the national record at 101 ft (31 m) tall and 32.5 ft (9.9 m) around.

- American beech (Fagus grandifolia) is the only species of this genus in North America. Although beech is now confined to the eastern United States (except for the Mexican population) it once extended as far west as California and probably flourished over most of North America before the glacial period (39).egetative Reproduction-Beech sprouts well from the stumps of young trees, but this ability diminishes after trees reach 10 cm (4 in) in d.b.h. Sprouts from stumps 25 cm to 38 cm (10 to 15 in) in diameter usually are short lived and do not attain tree stature.
