Rockville Academy: Large Tulip Poplar Tree

Thick limbs in the canopy

One of the longest horizontal limbs I've ever seen on a tulip poplar so far

Another tree that caught my eye in downtown Rockville was this large tulip polar growing in the front lawn of the Rockville Academy. I measured the tree to a height of 104.76 feet. The most impressive features of this tree was the huge trunk, limbs, and one of the longest horizontal limbs I've ever seen on a tulip polar to date. At fist glance, I thought the tree was an oak, but looking at the leaves, it was clearly a poplar. This is another tree I would recommend visiting if you ever find yourself in downtown Rockville...
