The short answer is yes. The long answer (along with a story) is also yes. Cottonwoods are dioecious--a beautiful old word that means "two houses"--male and female. Male cottonwood trees produce long red/purple/maroonish-colored catkins which contain aments--spikes of tiny flowers, without petals (not big and showy but beautiful in their own way) that produce pollen. Cottonwoods rely on the wind for pollination. The female cottonwoods produce tiny greenish/yellowish flowers--they look kind of like tapioca buds. The flowers are sticky and so able to catch the pollen from the males when the spring and summer winds begin to blow. Not flowers you'd gather for a bouquet--not even flowers you'd notice unless you looked closely. So, look! and look again! Kathleen Cain, author The Cottonwood Tree: An American Champion.
