Slender Silhouette Sweetgum Tree
Liquidambar styraciflua 'Slender Silhouette'

The American sweetgum is a bottomland species commonly growing 75 feet in height with a more or less pyramidal form. Slender Silhouette is a beanpole of a plant, growing 50 feet tall or higher, with a spread of 5 feet at the base. It maintains a remarkable degree of uniformity as it grows upward with the top of the column about the same width as the base.
Its popular glossy, dark green, star shaped leaves take on an unpredictable array of colors in the fall, ranging from clear yellow to orange, red or burgundy. Slender Silhouette trees I have seen in the fall had orange-red fall color.
Slender Silhouette was discovered growing wild along a railroad track near Don Shadow's Franklin County, Tennessee nursery sometime before the turn of the century.
Fastigiate plants such as Slender Silhouette sweetgum have the dramatic form and widespread adaptation that makes it a natural for inclusion in modern day urban settings where lot sizes are shrinking and neighbors are getting closer. They can be used as accent points in the landscape or for a tall screen planting.
Sweetgums are hardy from zones 5-9. They tolerate a wide array of soil conditions and grow quickly as young trees. They should not be planted in shaded sites.

For the health of our trees we do not ship bare root, we only ship trees potted in rich soil.
