Tulip Poplar
Liriodendron tulipifera ‘Arnold’
‘Arnold’ Tuliptree is the definition of opulence and elegance. A narrow, columnar version of the species, ‘Arnold’ has chartreuse, cup-shaped flowers with golden-orange centers. The flowers sit gracefully on top of the foliage, and resemble antique, timeless brooches. As a true style icon would, ‘Arnold’ makes sure that its leaves match its flowers, with the foliage turning a harvest gold in the fall. It doesn’t stop there, dazzling through all four seasons with its grey bark that radiates in the winter. Slender and strong, fast-growing, and charming, don’t miss out on this wonderful plant for small spaces!
