sycamore trees
Bark-shedding shade plants
Sycamore trees are large deciduous trees, though the name refers to different species depending on where you are.
In North America, sycamore means the American planetree, recognizable by its mottled bark that peels in patches to reveal white and cream underneath.
In Britain, sycamore is a maple species.
The biblical sycamore is yet another tree—a fig native to the Middle East.
