Is poppler a good wood to burn in a stove?

Poplar ("poppler") is a soft wood, like pine, and thus doesn't produce a lot of heat when burned. If well seasoned it will burn quickly and well in most stoves. Unlike pine, which contains a lot of resin which will deposit dangerous creosote in your chimney if burned slowly, well-seasoned poplar is relatively clean-burning. Hard woods such as maple, oak, cherry, etc. will provide more heat per volume of wood.
