Description

Platanus x hispanica is a grand, fast-growing tree with a rounded, slightly pyramidal crown; sometimes also called the London plane because it is the city’s most common tree. Large, palmately lobed leaves are maple-like in shape and peeling, multi-coloured bark gives the impression of camouflage. A large, magnificent variety, reaching an approx. height and spread of 25 x 20 metres in 20 years.

AKA: Platanus × acerifolia, Platanus × hybrida

Planting Steps

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
