About American Sycamore

From the U.S. Forest Service:

"American sycamore is a native, deciduous tree. Although not the tallest, it is among the tallest trees of eastern deciduous forests.  Mature heights range from 60 to 120 feet (18-37 m). Reported diameters range from 2 to 6.6 feet (0.6-2 m). The bark of young trunks has small scales.  Bark at the base of large trunks is deeply furrowed and up to 3 inches thick (7.6 cm); on the upper portions of the trunk the bark exfoliates in patches, leaving areas of inner bark exposed. The leaves are 4 to 10 inches (10-25.4 cm) long, often as broad or broader than they are long.  American sycamores form widespread, strongly branched root systems. The fruit is a plumed achene; numerous fruits are tightly aggregated into a ball-shaped fruiting head 0.8 to 2 inches (2-5 cm) in diameter.

American sycamore is characterized by rapid growth throughout its life; it is also long lived (over 250 years). Open-grown individuals can achieve a crown spread of 100 feet (30 m) or more. A survey of big trees in seven mid-southern states reported that the second and fourth largest trees (of all species) were American sycamores. The largest American sycamore in these states was a Tennessee tree 140 feet tall (42.67 m) and 65.9 inches (167.4 cm) dbh, with a circumference of 207 inches (525.8 cm), the largest circumference of any tree in these states."


About Jonsteen's Seedlings

All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California's Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values — a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!


About Jonsteen's Nursery Lots

Periodically, we offer great deals on bulk lots of select species to make room in the nursery for our new crop. It's a great way for us to keep things moving while rewarding our most prolific tree-planting customers. Are you thinking about a larger-scale landscaping, windbreak, restoration or reforestation project? This deal was made for you!

 

Seedling Size Chart: Small

Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.
