Description

Features:
✓ Neat, compact growing habit
✓ Late coming into leaf but late to fall
✓ Fantastic autumn leaf colour, before falling
✓ Leaves hold on long into autumn before falling

Large, star-shaped foliage of this magnificent variety of Liquidambar stand it out from the croud, turning striking hues of reds and oranges in autumn, before the leaves fall. Leaves are late to appear in spring and hold on late into autumn. It makes a broad, conical crown on a straight stem and makes the ideal tree for any small-large garden.
