Description
This form of the Tulip Tree has yellow variegation to its leaves and was introduced in the early 1900s.
The British champion I have heard is in Stourhead and stands at over 25 metres tall.
The foliage is at its most striking in the spring. Growing rather smaller than the species this is a medium/large tree with a pyramidal habit.
The bright yellow variegation tends to turn greenish-yellow by the end of the summer. Yellow flowers can be seen in July/August
It is deep rooted and wind resistant and does well on most fertile soils.
Lovely for parkland settings.
Mature height: 12-17m
Mature spread: 10-13m
