Care:
- African tulip trees are somewhat difficult to grow by seed but easy to propagate by taking tip or root cuttings, or by planting suckers.
- As far as growing conditions, the tree tolerates shade but performs best in full sunlight.
- Similarly, although it is relatively drought tolerant, African tulip tree is happiest with plenty of moisture.
- Although it likes rich soil, it will grow in nearly any well-drained soil.
Care:
- Newly planted African tulip trees benefit from regular irrigation.
- However, once established, the tree requires little attention.
- It is rarely bothered by pests or disease, but may temporarily shed its leaves during periods of severe drought.
-
African tulip trees should be pruned regularly because the branches, which tend to be brittle, break easily in harsh winds. - For this reason, the tree should be planted away from structures or smaller trees that may be damaged.
