3 ft. Bloodgood London Plane Tree with Fast Growth and Large Beautiful Form

Significantly planted in urban areas, the London Plane Tree has many desirable qualities that make it an excellent choice where a large shade tree is desired. A notably fast grower, this tree reaches a towering mature height between 75 ft. to 100 ft. London Plane trees are a hybrid between native and Oriental Sycamore trees combined to create a tougher, faster growing and more visually appealing variety. Bright gray bark naturally peels in strips to reveal a smooth olive-green surface underneath, giving this tree its distinguishing texture and color pattern. This large and lovely tree also produces unique green, ball-shaped, spiky fruits that slowly break up over Winter to be carried off by the wind. London Plane grows best in USDA Cold Hardiness Zones 4 to 9 and reaches a towering height of 100 ft., with a spread of 75 ft.
