It's a beautiful photo. I have a wonderful tulip tree that is a volunteer from wood chips I begged from a tree trimmer. I was happy to read your info about their blooming after 15-20 years because a friend had said 30. Since I am in my 60s, I now have hope that I'll see it bloom someday. My tree is about 8 years old I think and is growing fast. My life frequently takes me near a tulip tree that is quite old, growing near a very old and large beech tree, so I can watch the blooming period. Two favorite trees.... thanks for posting about the tulip tree.Lupine Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16689579874187534561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6654020634443647939.post-31460668883270565452009-06-02T07:57:29.340-05:002009-06-02T07:57:29.340-05:00"like greek columns in an emerald glade" -- well p..."like greek columns in an emerald glade" -- well put.

They make great yard trees, too - they grow straight and tall even in the open, and the seedlings are easy to transplant.<br /><br />I must admit I've fallen into the habit of calling them tulip poplars, which sounds more believable to the uninitiated, I think. Foresters call them yellow poplars, for some reason -- as you point out, they're actually in the magnolia family.Davehttp://www.vianegativa.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6654020634443647939.post-19691620707110950682009-05-28T22:46:27.598-05:002009-05-28T22:46:27.598-05:00We have a tree out here that we call a tulip tree ...We have a tree out here that we call a tulip tree -- nothing like yours, of course.
