Slender Silhouette Sweetgum is a popular tree known for its narrow, columnar shape. It is a cultivar of the Liquidambar styraciflua, commonly known as the Sweetgum tree. The Slender Silhouette variety is a great choice for landscapes with limited space, as it grows tall and slender, reaching heights of up to 60 feet but only spreading about 6 to 8 feet wide. It has beautiful star-shaped leaves that turn vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and red in the fall. This tree is a great option if you’re looking to add vertical interest to your garden or create a natural privacy screen
