Liquidambar styraciflua 'Aurea'
American sweetgum
Large deciduous tree with lobed green leaves that turn golden yellow in autumn before deepening to pink and red. In time it builds a tall, broadly conical crown and needs open ground to develop properly. Best in full sun on deep, moisture-retentive soil.

About sizes
CLT is a container volume in litres, VRL the same in a decorative red container. M is a field-grown plant lifted with its root ball, MGR the same grown in isolation and wire-balled. RN is bare root, available in the dormant season. T is a full standard and POT a planter. Heights are given as a range in centimetres; trunk girth is the circumference measured at one metre. A larger container is not always dearer: a trained or grafted form of the same volume costs more than a bush, and the form is named on the row.
