Tree	Liriodendron tulipifera fastigiata Upright Tulip Tree
Description	A smaller tree which is more upright than it is wide, forming a tear drop shape with age. It offers the same beautiful characteristics as straight L. tulipifera but its growth habit is much narrower with erect, upright growing branches. From late spring to summer, large yellowish-green, tulip-like flowers decorated with orange markings appear. In autumn the large lime green leaves turn a rich, golden-yellow before falling. This variety is suitable for smaller gardens due to its narrow growth habit.
Foliage	Deciduous
Form	Fastigiate
Mature Size	20 x 4m
Uses	Trees with a fastigiate form are more suitable for small to medium sized gardens as they are narrower. This variety makes a lovely specimen tree in both parks and gardens.
Position & Soil	Prefers a well drained, fertile, slightly acidic soil in a cooler climate. Avoid harsh windy sites so as not to scorch the leaves.
