Tulip trees are fall-foliage stars that get their name from the resemblance their flowers bear to the classic tulip flower. Tulip trees can be identified by the shape of their leaves: the concave shape of the tips of the leaves (or where you would expect a typical tip) makes the leaves look almost like someone took a bite out of them. Their leaves provide yellow to golden fall color.
As you get your tree started, water it regularly during dry, hot spells and keep an eye on its leaves.
Newly planted trees respond well to fertilization. Granular, liquid, or stake type fertilizers are recommended. Older trees generally don't require fertilization.
Take cuttings in the fall, selecting branches 18 inches or longer. Cut the branch just outside of the swollen area where it attaches to the tree.
