The Fastest-Growing Symmetrical Sycamore
Why American Sycamore Trees?
The American Sycamore is very popular for residential landscaping because of its extremely fast growth. In fact, the American Sycamore can gain up to 6 feet per year, growing a thick canopy that provides tons of shade quickly.
You can count on your American Sycamore to grow into a full, symmetrical tree. The tree's many branches develop large green leaves that turn to gold in the fall, offering good looks and dense growth. This makes it excellent for shielding your home from hot summer weather or allowing in plenty of sun during winter when you need it most. And the Sycamore develops smooth, white bark in the winter, adding additional seasonal interest when other trees look drab.
So, it’s an energy and money-saver. Even better is the fact that it’s easy to grow too…adaptable to moist soil types, thriving in both warm and cold climates, and growing well with just a bit of water and sun.

Beautiful tree.
Beautiful tree.
Sycamore
Tree arrived in perfect condition, and is a lovely shape and size. Better than the picture. Will make my yard look great!
Arrived in early December and
Arrived in early December and did not have branches or leaves on arrival. Was slightly taller than the 3-4 feet promised. I planted in zone 7 in mostly moist clay soil and near-full sunlight. It survived the winter and this spring is leafing out beautifully.
Perfect trees
These trees arrived healthy looking. Got them into the ground as soon as I could. So far, they are thriving. New leaf buds are forming.
Very Happy
I've ordered numerous trees from here. They have all been healthy trees and have done well except a fig tree I've tried two different times. I keep coming back to Fast Growing Trees
