Love the leaves of the tulip tree. Large but elegant. The flowers (the tulips) on a mature tree are spectacular, saw one in flower in a park in london before.
Thanks for sharing the pics spider. Smile

yes windy location lost some trees before ,hopefully not again .never seen a real tulip tree so decided to grow one of my own
dawn redwood family died out between 60 and 100 million years ago ,was rediscovered in 1941 in a province in china. The leaves feel very soft sort of unusual for a tree Anyway have to just wait and see will they take .As you can see from photos well protected not taking any chances
