Exclamation PlanetreeThe Sycamore is a majestic shade tree, FAST GROWING, yet has strong branches which don't often break up in ice, snow or wind. Our Sycamore at the front of our nursery garden was planted in 1989. It was 7 8' tall when planted and its over 50' now! Trees develop a beautiful, creamy white, smooth bark within only a couple of years after planting. Sycamores produce round seed pods in winter which simply blow away in winter They do NOT fall to the ground
