Tulip Poplar:  Oval to round crown.  Beautiful yellow, tulip-like flowers attract honey bees.  Bright green foliage turns yellow in fall.  Needs full sun and plenty of space.  Grows 70-90 feet with a spread of 35-50 feet.  Good to use to fill in vacant spots in tree plants.

Sugar Maple:  A favorite shade tree with reliable fall color.  Valued for its hard dense, fine-grained and difficult-to-split wood. Trees in open grows to 80 feet tall and 40 feet wide.  Requires a fertile, well drained soil and ample moisture. Full sun or partial shade. Performs poorly in compacted soil with limited root space.

White Oak: A large (90 feet) majestic native tree with wide spreading branches and leaves of blue-green which turn wine colored in the fall.  Tolerates most soils except those very wet.  It has a slow to medium growth rate.  An extremely valuable timber tree and provides acorns for wildlife.
