1 Live Tree American Sycamore Platanus occidentalis 15 Inch Tall

American Sycamore is a stately North American shade tree known for its massive size, broad maple-like leaves, and striking mottled bark that peels to reveal creamy white, tan, and gray patches. This fast-growing deciduous tree makes a bold long-term addition to large landscapes, parks, and spacious yards where it can develop its full grandeur.

The American Sycamore offers year-round ornamental interest, from fresh green foliage in spring to golden-brown autumn color and distinctive seed balls that persist through winter. Its wide canopy provides generous shade, and the wood is traditionally used in furniture and millwork. Plant it as a specimen or shade tree in open areas with room to spread.
