Burgundy Blush Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua ‘Burgundy Blush’) is a deciduous ornamental shade tree valued for its distinctive star-shaped foliage and rich seasonal color. This cultivated variety of American sweetgum brings texture and visual interest to residential landscapes, garden plantings, and open lawn areas.

During the growing season, its attractive green foliage provides a lush appearance before developing burgundy and reddish-purple tones in autumn. The tree has a naturally upright, branching growth habit and is well suited to landscapes where its ornamental foliage and seasonal changes can be appreciated. Fall color intensity may vary with climate, weather, and growing conditions.

Supplied as one live tree in a 3 gallon nursery pot, Burgundy Blush Sweetgum generally performs best in full sun and moist, well-drained soil. It is a suitable choice for ornamental tree plantings, shade tree landscapes, and properties with adequate room for long-term tree development.
