An unusual tree native to Eastern Asia which has three lobed, maple-like leaves which emerge as a vivid burgundy-purple colour in spring.

These leaves slowly darken to green as they age in summer, before turning a translucent red in autumn before they fall.

Liquidambar acalycina 'Burgundy Flush' is a handsome garden tree with both spring and autumn colour!
