I know there are a couple of them in my Michigan hometown. They really stand out because they’re so tall and straight.
I have 2 that are doing great. The state sells all kinds of dry root trees in the spring...all of my Michigan blue spruce are over 10 foot tall in 9 years. One tulip tree is going better than the other, its about 12 foot tall.They sell the trees in bunches of 12. All of the one’s I planted survived.
I live on the Eastern Shore of Maryland (which means I live on the eastern side of the Chesapeake Bay). My flower beds always sprout lots of seedlings, especially oaks and, unfortunately, Norway maples. But, while tulip trees are not uncommon in the state of Maryland, we have not had voluteer tulip trees — until the past two years. I am not sure why, but we have had tulip trees popping up all over the yard.
