Tulip Poplar Bloom

I have two Tulip Poplar trees in my backyard. After they got really big and very tall I noticed these tulip shaped buds and realized that is where the meaning of the name comes from. It was a very cool moment. There are blooms inside these buds and the birds love them. The tree is covered with these in the summer.  I also learned the tulip tree is one of the largest of the native trees of the eastern United States. 

Nature has much to offer.
