Poplar ??? did not know it by the other name, yes I am familiar with it, very clean and tight grain hardwood,greenish hue to it, sometimes a little black, but mostly white, they mill it for trim that will be painted, was not very expensive planed D4S as I recall, ( planed 4 sides). We used to handle quite a bit of it at the lumber yard millwork shop, they used to stock it amongst all the other hardwoods for mill orders. Never saw it come in dimensions like pine, nor saw it offered like what we had in the pine shed, in rough sawn, but was popular in the mill, lot of orders for it for trim or nominal dimension to be used as trim. Old timer used to run the planer and hand grind the knives for all kinds of trim profiles, what a jobhe could do, that machine was from the 40's, loud and left piles of shavings. I think we have a few growing here, fast growing tree, have to check around and see who may have some when it comes time, I'd like to see how they react to it.
