It is one of the few trees capable of displaying several vibrant colours simultaneously.
This great value pack contains three large individual trees, making it ideal for avenue planting, larger gardens, estates, parks, or creating an outstanding long-term landscape feature. Fast-growing, hardy, and long-lived, Sweet Gum Trees quickly establish into magnificent specimen trees.
