Well suited for large landscapes and park areas, the sycamore tree is stunning and built. The most pronounced feature of the tree is the unique camouflage bark that peels off in large papery bits to reveal light to medium gray bark below. Older trees can be easily recognized by the white bark at the top of the tree. 

The Sycamore Tree Can get HUGE 

Over time, the tree becomes hollow and weak as a fungus takes over. Not harming the tree, it allows local wildlife to use the new space for winter storage for nuts and shelter. They grow to a massive height and can take up quite a bit of space, making them the perfect fit for open landscapes such as parks and along streams. 
Some very old trees attain heights upwards of 80 feet. The trees achieve average heights in the low 30-foot range after two decades. They thrive within slightly acidic soils (pH ranges of 4.9 to 6.5). 

The Sycamore Tree Likes Wetlands 

When planting, it prefers wet, alkaline soil but will fare well in almost any soil. The saplings can be planted year-round, but if they've already developed the balled roots it is best to transplant during spring or fall. They are easy to care for and only need fertilization every other year, but be sure to water the young trees well. 

The Sycamore Tree Does Well In Shade 

When looking for the perfect location, the sycamore tree will not grow well in shady areas, so find a location that gets at least six hours of sun is preferred and has ample space as the tree can develop multiple trunks. During the spring, they produce tiny green flowers in dense gatherings and produce hairy, round balls that enclose the seedlings for pollination. With their unique structure and colorings, they are a wonderful addition to any local park and landscape.
