Our American Sweetgum is a beautiful shade producing winner that shelters the yard with big, 6-inch shiny green leaves in the shape of stars.
It has deeply furrowed brown bark and grows consistently straight up to 75 feet tall. Matures to a cone-shaped crown.
And the fall color? Fabulous! This giant doesn’t just flame with color... it explodes in oranges, reds and purples.
Its wide tolerance for various soil and moisture conditions make it a perfect choice for a windbreak, shade tree or street tree. It can even take extended periods of flooding.
