Tulip Poplars are beginning to bloom in NE Ohio.

Just noticed it this afternoon.

Lucky you, all those trees that are bigger than my leg, have been logged around here. Thank God for Black Locust

Yeah we have hundreds. They are the first trees we cull, however in order to thin out the forest canopy for the sugar maples. I have a couple of tulip poplars that are massive. Probably 5 feet across at chest height. Not sure if these forest trees are blooming yet, because they are so tall I cant really see without binoculars. My yard tree is blooming, however.
