Liquidambar styraciflua Pleached Panel – Striking Seasonal Screening (200cm x 130cm) Liquidambar styraciflua, commonly known as sweet gum, in a pleached panel form is a stunning way to introduce seasonal colour, architectural structure, and natural screening into your garden. With its neatly trained horizontal framework and vibrant, star-shaped foliage, this pleached tree offers both practical privacy and ornamental beauty in one elegant package. Standing at 200cm high x 130cm wide, these pleached panels are ideal for creating living screens above walls and fences, dividing garden spaces, or adding vertical interest without taking up too much ground space.
