Platanus x hispanica 'Columbia'
Columbia London planetree

The original form used in the landscape industry, this mildew and anthracnose resistant cultivar has a good uniform pyramidal habit. The central Illinois ice storm of 1990 showed this selection to have slightly stronger wood than that of 'Liberty'.
