It can be identified in Northern regions by its greenish bark and multiple fruit, setting it apart from the white-barked single fruiting sycamore. It was also recognized as Platanus x acerifolia or Platanus x hybrida previously. | Habit: | Pyramidal and spreading | | Size: | 70-100' high | | Color: | Medium to dark green, becoming tan to brown in autumn | | Texture: | Coarse | | Hardiness: | Zone 6a USDA | | Family: | Platanaceae | |
