Liquidambar Tree

The trees in the Jelly Bean Border are all deciduous. Autumn colours are sparse, though the Tulip tree's leaves do turn pale yellow. But wait until winter - this is the Liquidambar tree's time to glow.

Winter Liquidambar Tree

The Berberis on the edge of the border turns its deepest red at the same time. I really enjoy this easy-care, tough shrub, though it does need pruning from time to time.

Beautiful winter leaves...

My Liquidambar colours very late and drops its leaves even later. What beautiful winter leaves!

 You can just see Pond Cottage through the trees.
