These poplars are growing in the sand of the Sleeping Bear Dunes along the shore of Lake Michigan. They survive shifting sands and windy conditions. In fact, these "trees" are probably just two individual trees which have been buried so deep as the dunes advance that each main limb not only looks like a separate tree but has rooted and could live as an independent tree.
