The '''quaking aspen''' is the most widely distributed tree species in [[North America]]. Common characteristics include the trembling leaves and the white bark. Most aspens are clonal species that share a extensive root system and are genetically identical. They are resistant to fire and grow rapidly in areas devastated by forest fires. Quaking aspens are loved for their brilliant fall colors and beautiful appearance.[http://www.rook.org/earl/bwca/nature/trees/populustrem.html] | |||
