Great video. I'm thinking about using a poplar as a fast growing trellis for a honeysuckle plant, but this was a lovely distraction. (The plan is to kill my poplar after a couple years by removing an inch of the Cambian layer around the whole tree's circumference. Maybe use concrete, gravel, or some coppery fungicide for the top 6" to 12" of soil to slow the rot.)

I appreciate the big picture eco overview and the entomology. When the tree has to go it has to go. Especially that close to the house, but there’s always a cost. Several costs. Good job. Subbed

I live near a park that's full of century old tulip poplars, they are beautiful and majestic, but you certainly wouldn't want one anywhere close to a house. On occasion some have fallen during storms and its a huge operation to have them removed.

Cheaper than replacing/repair your roof when the limbs fall or the whole tree goes through it and/or foundation, sidewalk and driveway issues. Tulip Poplar are not "Residential/Urban Trees". It is like deciding , am going to have "Pet Elephant" instead of a dog or cat that stays with the house and lot; at some point the Elephant is going to get to big to keep inside the house.

You got the Latin name wrong. This is not a member of the genus Populus. It's not even in that family. This is a member of the 2 genus Magnolia family, and the proper species name is Liriodendron tulipifera. It's called "yellow poplar" in the lumber trade due to the similarity of its lumber to that of trees in the Populus genus, but it is not a poplar. Or a tulip for that matter. This is the American representative of the 2 species genus Liriodendron. The other is Liriodendron chinense. The American species is the tallest North American hardwood (angiosperm or flowering plant/tree) and the tallest tree species east of the Mississippi. A tree in Tennessee has been tape-dropped repeatedly at 191' tall. Thought I'd help clarify since the first sentence has incorrect, scientifically and verifiably false information about the botanical name of the tree.

Yes, It should be "Removed. That tree is does NOT belong there or in that neighborhood period.....The lots in that neighborhood are too small for Tulip poplars considering that fact that they grow 100-125ft and have the potential of growing close to 200ft...."Ranger Ants" or "Carpenter Ants"? My neighbors Tulip poplar snapped at the trunk and fell into our yard. I ended up having to remove the down tree. The tree snapped because ants had "eaten" parts of the trunk and weaken it. These tree belong in Parks, Forests, Farms or lots that are several acres. It is not an "Urban/Residential Friendly Tree".
