Magnolia tripetala or commonly called Umbrella tree is a hard to find native tree with very large tropical-looking leaves usually found in the understory of rich forests. The leaves resemble umbrellas or large triangular hats as we used them to play with as kids at my grandmother's house. Large white flowers in spring give way to red cucumber shaped seed pods in mid-summer.
