Liriodendron tulipifera Fastigiatum
As the name suggests "the Tulip Tree" will bloom with large yellow-green flowers from late spring. Summer will see lime green foliage turning to golden yellow in autumn.
Cultural
Prefers full to part sun and deep, fertile, well-drained soil. Whilst it will withstand some wind and frost, protect from harsh summer winds which can damage the foliage.
Landscape Uses
Being more upright and narrow than wide, Liriodendron make a magnificent driveway tree forming a stunning avenue. Their fastigiate nature will develop into a tear drop shape with age making them a useful feature to add a strong vertical element in design.
