These monumental wonders really are a sight to behold when in full flower during the summer. Whilst they are slow to reach maturity and offer the fantastic blooms – they are certainly worth the wait. Liriodendron tulipifera is much loved by our nation of garden enthusiasts. Frequently seen in RHS gardens – their orange, yellow and green blooms, which resemble tulips in their shape, are a relatively rare and exciting treat. The tree itself is a North American native and wood was often used to build canoes, hence its lesser-known common name ‘Canoewood’.
