Tulip trees are vigorous large deciduous trees with beautifully shaped glossy four-lobed leaves with an unusual straight top. The leaves turn a gorgeous butter yellow and coppery in Autumn. In early summer semi-mature specimens produce exquisite tulip-shaped flowers of yellow-green with an orange flare at the base. Followed by single-winged seeds, not dissimilar to a cone. Liriodendron tulipifera is helpful to wildlife and has good pollution tolerance.

The tree is watered before being carefully packed by one of our experienced staff on site. It comes in a cardboard box lined with straw. (We try to use as much recycling material as possible) The box is addressed to the customer or a specified name and address and sent out overnight delivery to arrive on requested dates.
Please note the size of the tree that you are ordering, as our trees are provided for our clients to plant themselves, which may appear at a small size rather than the fully grown tree as shown in the photos. To find out more information, please visit our Delivery & Returns page.
Easy to order and well illustrated and factual
