Clean the air, save energy, and create a butterfly haven.ED MARTH

Plant  1 Tulip Tree on the southwest side of each new home in a subdivision of 100 homes.  The Tulip Tree is a tall, fast growing hardwood which will provide shade and thereby reduce air-conditioning costs in summer, be a windbreak in reducing heating costs in winter, provide oxygen while in leaf, and it is the host plant (where it lays its eggs) for the Eatern Tiger Swallowtail, (the big yellow butterfly).  Tulip Trees produce a tulip like flower, and dark green foliage, adding colour and increasing property values.
