It was under this plane tree that Lord Forrester was murdered by his sister in law at Corstophine, Edinburgh, in 1679!
The leaves are golden yellow when young, hardening to a yellow/green in summer. It is a small tree with a rounded habit.
It tolerates air pollution and thrives in most soils, and is particularly useful for coastal sites where it can make an effective defence against strong winds and salt-laden air.
Mature height: 10-15m
