Tuliptree or Yellow Poplar. Liriodendron tulipifera. If you are a honeybeeist you know that this is your last big nectar producer of the spring and, as a tree, it can dominate nectar availability in forests at that time of year (earlier in the season it is usually dominated by the spring wildflowers/shrubs of the understory). Deciduous forests, not fields, are where the action is in the spring in many Eastern habitats. Of course, the native bee species are attracted to this tree too (or else why would the tree bother with all this nectar production?), but ... what are they? Darn it, as far as I can tell from the weak literature and specimen label data, we really don't know, but it must be big! Darn those tall trees. Picture and specimen by Helen Lowe Metzman. 17:07, 7 May 2021 (UTC)17:07, 7 May 2021 (UTC){{{{{{0}}}}}}17:07, 7 May 2021 (UTC)17:07, 7 May 2021 (UTC) All photographs are public domain, feel free to download and use as you wish.
We Are Made One with What We Touch and See We are resolved into the supreme air, We are made one with what we touch and see, With our heart's blood each crimson sun is fair, With our young lives each spring impassioned tree Flames into green, the wildest beasts that range The moor our kinsmen are, all life is one, and all is change. - Oscar Wilde
