Nyssa sylvatica Green Gable

Nyssa sylvatica Green Gable™ PP22951

Black Gum - Black Tupelo

Green Gable™ ('NSUHH') Black Gum or Tupelo is a really amazing selection of this native tree. It has the classic brilliant red fall color we know and love, but its habit is a huge departure from regular Nyssas, with an upright pyramidal shape and extremely uniform branching. With its lustrous green foliage in summer, excellent fall color and perfect silhouette in winter, it is clearly the best answer we've seen to the Pear requests people still have. Alex Neubauer of Hidden Hollow Nursery in Tennessee found this exciting native, which is primarily a male form (but probably polygamo-dioecious, which means it will infrequently bear some fruit).  Wet site and salt tolerant. 2023 PHS Gold Medal Plant.

PRN Preferred:  This tree has a wonderful upright habit and consistantly beautiful fall color.
