Sycamore, European *. s known also as the Oriental Plane tree, is a na¬ 
tive of Europe and Asia, and is regarded as one of 
(Platanus Orientalis) the best varieties for street, avenue and yard plant¬ 
ing. It is of spreading habit with a well rounded head having plenty of foliage 
to protect the bark from sunburn. Leaves are very large and dark green 
in color. 
The tree can easily be recognized on account of its bark, which is very thin 
and peels off in irregular flakes, leaving the trunk patched with light and 
dark spots. 
We. highly recommend planting it in all sections of California and particu¬ 
larly in the San Joaquin Valley.
