State Trees Series: Indiana, Tulip Tree
The state tree of Indiana is the tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), also known as the yellow poplar. It was designated as the official state tree in 1931. This tall, fast-growing tree is known for its distinctive tulip-shaped flowers and bright green leaves that turn golden in the fall. Tulip trees provide strong, lightweight wood used in furniture and construction. They are a vital part of Indiana's forests and symbolize growth, resilience, and natural beauty.
