Visual Interest in Spring and Fall

 

Why Tulip Poplar Trees?

Imagine leaving for work one morning during spring: before you leave, you notice 3 to 4 small blooms on your tree. When you come home that evening, that same tree is covered in a blanket of richly-hued florals. With the Tulip Poplar, a dazzling production and fast growth are not only possible but expected.

You'll have the brightest tree in the neighborhood. And though it takes the blooms some time to develop (10 to 15 years), they're unmatched. Even better? During the summer, you'll have a fast-growing, well-formed green shade tree. When fall arrives, the Tulip's leaves turn to bright yellow for a dazzling show. So, our Tulip Poplar merges the best of both worlds.

Why Fast-Growing-Trees.com is Better

Even better, our Tulip Poplar is highly resistant to insects and diseases, making it a healthful pick that provides a lifetime of enjoyment. And since it's easy to grow, it thrives in nearly any area. It's highly adaptable to a variety of soils, even wet soil.

But the best part is that we've planted, grown, and nurtured your Tulip Poplar for months ahead of time, which means a healthy root system and developed branching for you. Now, your Tulip Poplar is an attractive front yard tree that will increase your home's value.

From climate to climate and no matter the temperature extremes, the Tulip Poplar wows because we've put in the extra work.

Plant your Tulip Poplar Tree and start looking forward to the change of seasons - instant beauty is just a click away!

Happy so far

Arrived faster than I expected and was unable to plant until the next day so followed your instructions to keeping it happy. I can already tell when it needs water as it "droops" when thirsty and stands tall when watered!! Only been a week and a half but it's doin great and lookin happy like it's right at home!! Ask me next year how it's doin! Thanks for being so quick on delivery and sending such a healthy tree!!❤️

Wasn't sure at first

FedEx decided to drive around with this poor thing an extra 4 days. I didn't like that the top of the main leader was cut as well as a large root to fit in the box and it wasn't in a pot like other trees I've ordered. Gave it some love and planted anyway. Now it has leafed out and so far so good. Some branches arrived DOA but I will trim come fall. The little tree that could is looking good right now.

It’s looks good smaller than I would expect for the cost but we will see

Great tree

Planning an early spring, it is doing great. Came very healthy and in great shape. It is thriving and growing a lot. Doing well in this hot Nebraska summer heat.
