(American Sweetgum, Fruitless American Sweetgum)
Fruitless American sweetgum is an impressive and tall deciduous tree that displays nice fall color in shades of red and purple on its palm-shaped leaves. This cultivar is particularly desirable because it does not produce the hard, spiny fruits that litter the ground. Its leaves are less pointed than the species, making it unique.
It has a tall, erect form when young, then eventually spreads its branches outward with age. Leaves are palmate, with rounded tips and are glossy green in summer and then...

Drier climates with moderately cool summers are best for this low, scrambling, densely-branched plant.
Small, lance-shaped to needle-like leaves cover purple gromwell throughout the year. These are hairy and deep green. In late spring or early...
