Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The unique three-lobed leaves of this colorful Asian shade tree open a dramatic deep burgundy-red and keep that color well into summer before maturing to deep green. This stunning specimen makes a statement at 50' tall by 25' wide, especially so in fall when the foliage turns lively shades of burnt-orange with yellow and purple. A fruitless selection, no messy seeds balls to sweep up! S/M
Liquidambar acalycina 'Burgundy Flush' Chang's Chinese Sweetgum. Spring leaves emerge rich purple-red and fade to lime green in summer. An uncommon species of sweetgum; the leaves have three lobes instead of the usual five. Great for Urban Landscapes as they are virtually seedless.
