Liquidambar styraciflua ‘Worplesdon’ – Pleached (Sweet Gum 'Worplesdon')

A beautiful cultivar of a beautiful tree, with particularly deeply lobed trees, emerging soft green for spring and summer before erupting into flaming reds and crimsons in autumn, especially on trees planted in full sun. The mature tree will develop an almost teardrop pyrmidal shape and though relatively slow growing could eventually reach 20m in height. 

Position in full sunt to partial shade, any aspect, any soil that is moist but well drained. A thoroughly established tree can tolerate occasional spells of both very wet or very dry conditions.
