Acer pseudoplatanus
Sycamore maple

Resembling leaves of a sycamore or Norway maple, the opposite, simple, 3-5" long leaf blades are 3-6" wide with 5 coarsely serrate lobes. They are dark green above with a light green underside and have a very leathery texture. The serrate margins and impressed venation differentiate this from a Norway maple.
