Tulip Poplar Tree – Fast-Growing Shade & Ornamental Tree
• The Tulip Poplar Tree (Liriodendron tulipifera) is a majestic, fast-growing deciduous tree known for its vibrant yellow tulip-like blooms and towering height. This tree is a favorite for home landscapes, parks, and large properties, providing ample shade and year-round beauty.
