American Sycamore is a majestic, fast-growing tree noted for its distinctive mottled bark that peels to reveal creamy white layers. With broad, dense foliage, this tree provides excellent shade and is highly resilient, making it a popular choice for large landscapes, parks, and riverbanks. The iconic trees also boast high tolerance for urban environments and challenging conditions. With their beautiful bark and adaptability, they make a stunning addition to landscapes while providing excellent habitat for wildlife.

 

Planting Instructions:

Cold Stratification: American Sycamore seeds benefit from 60–90 days of cold stratification to enhance germination. Store seeds in damp sand or peat moss in the refrigerator.

Planting Depth: Sow seeds 1/8–1/4 inch deep in well-draining, fertile soil.

Spacing: Plant trees 30–40 feet apart to allow for their wide-spreading crown and mature size.

Sunlight: Thrives in full sun for best growth.

Watering: Requires consistent moisture, particularly in the first few years. American Sycamore tolerates wet soils well and is often planted near water sources.
