Aureomarginatum is a particularly luminous tulip tree, with large green leaves broadly edged in golden yellow. Its upright crown eventually creates a striking specimen for parks and spacious gardens, while tulip-shaped flowers appear on mature trees. It performs best in deep, fertile soil that remains reasonably moist. Its eventual height and broad root system make it unsuitable for confined gardens.

Aureomarginatum Tulip Tree (Liriodendron tulipifera ‘Aureomarginatum’) is a beautiful variegated form of the American tulip tree, appreciated for its large distinctive leaves edged with golden yellow.
The foliage provides strong ornamental interest from spring to autumn. The golden margins are especially visible on young leaves, becoming softer green-yellow during summer before the tree turns attractive golden shades in autumn.
On mature trees, tulip-shaped flowers may appear in summer. They are greenish-yellow with orange markings and are often partly hidden among the foliage, but add further interest to older specimens.
This cultivar is generally smaller than the typical species, usually forming a medium to large tree suitable for parks, large gardens and specimen planting. It prefers fertile, moist but well-drained soil and a sunny to lightly shaded position.
