Sycamore tree

In a recent survey of Callis Wood at Charlestown, we saw some leaves of a mature Sycamore that looked different. They were on the end of a low, large branch and if shown in isolation it would be easy to assume they are from an ornamental maple.

  1. That's unusual.

    Nurserymen would call that a "sport" and propagate it as a garden tree after making up a name for it.

    As you found it, you could be the first to name it!
