Yellow Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) Zones 4 to 9 Grows 70 to 100 feet tall Full Sun An amazing and fast growing hardwood shade tree from the eastern forest. Yellow poplar often exceeds 100 feet in height and 4-6 feet in diameter. It grows rapidly on many soil types but performs best on moist, rich, well-drained soils. It does not adapt well to very wet or very dry sites. Yellow poplar is very intolerant of shade and requires full sunlight for best growth. Seedlings and young trees are very susceptible to fire and mechanical damage. The wood is straight grained and even textured making it desirable for a variety of uses. Yellow poplar is a prized ornamental with its large, conspicuous flowers, tulip-shaped leaves, and brilliant yellow foliage in autumn. The seeds are eaten by birds and other small wildlife. Bare root, average 15" to 25"
