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.

Sycamore tree
I have never purchased a tree on the Internet before, but I couldn’t find an acceptable tree in Columbus so I took a risk. The online purchase was very easy and delivery was quick. However, even though the shipping container was extremely good, two of the branches were broken off at the top. I planted it and it seems to be thriving at this point. Thank you.
