Liquidambar styraciflua 'Gum Ball' - Gum Ball sweetgum
.
Common name: Gum Ball sweetgum
Family: Hamamelidaceae (witch-hazel family)
Distribution: Species native from e. United States to Central America
Hardiness: USDA Zone 5
Life form: Deciduous tree
Comments: A shrubby, fruitless selection of this normally large-growing, native tree. The star-like, glossy green leaves retain their summer color late into fall, and if early frosts don't take them off, multi-colors can be produced. Old plants attain 10-12' high and wide.
