RE: Amazon lily NOW Other Flowers

Being an old, transplanted Hoosier, I really am tickled with the tulip
poplar tree.  I wasn't aware that there was another tree also known as a
tulip tree.  That's what I get for not looking up the botanical name.
Sorry.

Blessings,

I thought it odd that TN's state tree was the Tulip Poplar because that is
IN's state tree, so I checked and we do share that.
