Acer pseudoplatanus (Sycamore) 'Corstorphinense'
Common name: Corstorphine Plane
Species: Acer pseudoplatanus
Cultivar: Corstorphinense
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
