greenilh coloured towards the tops, but marked 
tranfverfely with red, towards the claws; which are 
glandular and honey-bearing. The young trees 
make a beautiful appearance, efpecially when in flow- 
er. We have two kinds of Tulip trees, viz. Yellow 
and White, their difference eafily diffinguifhable by 
the wood or timber, but perhaps not otherwife. The 
Yellow is foft and brittle, and much ufed for boards, 
heels for fhoes, &c. alfo turned into bowls, trench-

likewife fawed into joifls, boards. See. for building. 
The bark of the root is ufed as an ingredient in 
bitters, Sec.
