Nyssa sylvatica (Black Gum or Tupelo or Black Tupelo) Size:#3 Pot Photo 1: By Bruce MarlinNyssa sylvatica (Black Gum) is a striking specimen, shade, or even street tree with its glossy green leaves in the summer and blazing red fall leaves. Although the flowers are not particularly showy they are a rich nectar source for bees and its seed are a valuable food source for birds.
