Tulip-Tree (Liriodendron Tulipifera)
Heed not the night; a summer lodge amid the wild is mine—
’Tis shadowed by the tulip-tree, ’tis mantled by the vine.
Bryant—A Strange Lady. St. 6.
The tulip-tree, high up,
Opened, in airs of June, her multitude
Of golden chalices to humming birds
And silken-winged insects of the sky.
Bryant—The Fountain. St. 3.
