Liquidambar styraciflua 'Worplesdon'

A magnificent and well-known variety, renowned for its spectacular autumn show. In the autumn, the star-shaped, bright green leaves turn purple, then scarlet and orange. The severely fissured bark of this deciduous tree produces a beautiful winter silhouette. Liquidambar styraciflua 'Worplesdon' grows to be a huge tree with a broad, spreading crown over time. It is not appropriate for tiny gardens, but if you have the space, this tree will make a stunning focal point. Height: 25m (80?). Spread: 12m (40?).
