American Sycamore Tree – 3 Pack Of 1.5 Quart Pots

One of the fastest and largest growing of the North American native hardwood trees, the American Sycamore can add up to 6 feet in height per year topping out at upwards of 70 to 90 feet in height and spread. Though many trees that grow this fast are short lived and easily blown over by wind, the Sycamore is long-lived and stands up to strong winds in locations all over the country (Zones 4 to 9). Ornamentally, the Sycamore is a beauty sporting large and highly attractive lobed leaves up to 10 inches across that are rich green during the season turning a copper color in fall. Perhaps the most outstanding feature is the attractive brown bark that exfoliates to reveal creamy white inner bark which can be seen from quite a distance. Showy and fuzzy gumball sized fruits appear in fall containing seeds relished by gold finches, chickadees and other birds during winter.
