Nyssa aquatica

The Water Tupelo shares the same habitat with the Swamp Cypress, Taxodium distichum, in the SE USA; often spending months in up to 2m of standing water, though like the latter it is perfectly suited to ordinary or even rather dry soils in cultivation here in the UK. Very rarely grown but proven perfectly happy here in neutral to acid soil, from clay to sand and everything in between, it is capable of at least 9m height and like its better known cousin can produce excellent red or yellow autumn colour if grown in full sun.
