'Happidaze' is a fruitless sweetgum cultivar. While other varieties of this North American native are well known for its leaf shape, spiky fruit, and extraordinary fall color, 'Happidaze' will not create a mess in your yard, yet you can still enjoy it's gorgeous leaves and fall color. The glossy, green leaves are star shaped and change to a brilliant mix of reds, purples, and yellows in autumn. Insignificant flowers appear in spring. Sweetgum prefer moist, well-draining acidic soils in full sun to part shade. A thick layer of mulch will help benefit moisture retention in the soil. Sweetgum can have shallow root systems.
