Black tupelo

Nyssaceae / Nyssa sylvatica – black tupelo

This tree found its home in wet areas across Eastern North America. Tupelos are deciduous, and before dropping their leaves, the leaves turn to attractive orange-red autumn colors. They have an apically dominant start. The long trunk gives rise to horizontal side branches that droop down with age, not very different from pine trees.
