Noted for its variegated foliage, Liriodendron tulipifera 'Aureomarginatum' (Tulip Tree) is a strong-growing medium-sized deciduous tree of pyramidal habit when young, becoming oval-rounded with age. In late spring to early summer, tulip-shaped, yellowish-green flowers, 3 in. across (7 cm), marked with orange at the base of each petal, appear after the leaves. Handsome at close range, they are borne so high on the tree that they are often missed. They are followed by cone-like fruit that provide winter interest. The glossy foliage of 4-lobed leaves is margined with yellow and quite striking. It turns brilliant golden yellow in fall. Tulip Tree makes a superb shade tree or specimen tree for a large landscape.
