Tulip or Yellow Poplar (39.2KB)Tulip or Yellow Poplar:  One of the tallest native deciduous trees, it can reach 200 feet. It is easy to identify because of its almost-square leaf. A large limb blew out of this one in a recent storm, and it has been "crowned" reducing it in height. The house was built in about 1913 and it is likely this tree was planted around that time. tuliptree_flowerleaves.jpg (24843 bytes)
