While hiking the iconic Appalachian Trail on an enchanting April morning, I left behind a valley lush with vibrant, green spring foliage. As the trail ascended, I couldn’t help but notice that the landscape changed dramatically; the higher I climbed, the less green I encountered. At elevated altitudes, trees and branches revealed fewer leaves, with some exhibiting no new growth at all.
The stunning shawl, **Tulip Tree**, beautifully illustrates the tulip tree's journey as it begins to awaken from winter dormancy. It captures the essence of spring, starting with budding leaves, featuring unopened buds toward the higher reaches, and culminating in a majestic border that represents the highest branches adorned with exquisite flowers in full bloom!
