Eastern Cottonwoods are dioecious, meaning each tree has either male or female flowers, not both. If your tree is male, it wouldn't produce the cottony seeds that cottonwoods are famous for.

For what it's worth, it does appear to be Eastern Cottonwood. Beautiful trees when they reach that size, aren't they?

Hi Kent, thanks for that clarification. I really, really like this tree. Saying it's the reason we bought the house would be a stretch, but it was definitely a selling point!
