This fabulous Liquidambar styraciflua 'Thea' tree will transform your garden with spectactular year-round colour. A truly impressive ornamental tree, it is in the gloomier months of the year when this stunning tree really comes into its own – in autumn, the foliage starts to change colour spectacularly, literally engulfing the tree in shades of fiery-orange and brilliant-red. Commonly known as 'Sweet Gum', Liquidambar produces attractive, glossy green maple-like leaves in spring and summer, along small, yellow-white flowers which are followed by burred fruit capsules affectionately known as monkey-balls! A useful addition to your garden, both for colour and form, the tree's bark is also very unusual, with corky scales that become wonderful deep ridges as the tree ages – perfect for the kids to take bark rubbings. It produces a sticky, sweetly fragrant resin when cut, hence the name. This really is one of the very best trees for autumn colour, making both a wonderful feature tree, and a useful addition to the back of a border where it will shine. Supplied as an established plant in a 1L pot, ready to plant out.
