Liriodendron tulipifera

June 05, 2015

I don't think very many people realize that Michigan has a native tree with such a beautiful bloom. This is the Tulip Tree, Liriodendron tulipifera, also known as Whitewood, Fiddle-tree and White Poplar. Not only does it have a beautiful flower but I believe it is one of our most majestic Hardwoods. It can grow to heights of more than 165 ft which explains why many of use have never seen it's wonderful blooms. Click here to see all of the facts on Wikipedia.
