Description
Liquidambar styraciflua 'Worplesdon' has fantastic star-shaped foliage that is more deeply lobed than some other varieties. The glossy green foliage will delight with a display of autumn colour that begins with yellow and orange, developing to vibrant claret red. Corky, fissured bark creates yet more interest and is ideal for children to create bark rubbings. This pyramidal tree will grow to 10 x 6 metres in 20 years when given a moist or damp soil in full sun where possible.
