Such a beautiful name



Liriodendron tulipifera
Tulip tree
Lana, we really are two weeks behind you. Your May 11th post inspired me to go looking for a northern cousin to your tulip tree blossoms.

It is a lovely name, isn't it? I love your pictures. Two weeks huh? That sounds about right from here down to Memphis, say.

Thanks for finding this northern cousin. This species of tree is my favorite.
