The flower is from a tulip poplar tree (Liriodendron tulipifera). They are in the magnolia family. Beautiful trees. You have a very pretty parcel of land.
Hey there! A few reasons to plant the 5: 1. creating a bit of canopy/cover in once was a tree covered area near the creek, 2. Creating a barrier between the property and a hiking trail, 3. Using red maples to increase fall colors in the area nearest the creek. I planted 5 in total. Hardest to put in were the two closest to the old farm road which was compact and had a rock aggregate content. While I was there I planted some paw paw trees (4). Using those to recreate some canopy and create a source of native tropical fruit for my own consumption and wildlife. Did that answer your question? Lmk and thanks for the question! Mark

Hi Mark, Why are you planting so many maple trees?
