Quick Overview

Worplesdon Sweetgum is a superior shade tree cultivar; cold tolerant to approximately -29 degrees and smoother, less corky bark than the species, nearly eliminated litter of their fruit (gumballs). A striking pyramidal to oval form offers a vertical accent to the landscape. Narrow, deeply lobed, light-green, glossy foliage turns an artistic pallet of apricot-orange to purple in the Fall. This outstanding specimen will instantly make it the focal point of any landscape.
