American Sweetgum
Liquidambar styraciflua 'Worplesdon'
We know 'Worplesdon' is a cultivar of American Sweetgum and that it will have some special characteristics, but until we have those in our directory, here’s the nearest we have.
American Sweetgums could be mistaken for one of the Maple species because they have pointed, five-lobed leaves.
But their seeds are held in balls, unlike the winged 'samara' or helicopters of the Maples.
Sweetgums have great autumn colours which you can see very late into the season and some trees may retain a few leaves right through the winter in mild years.
