Purple sycamore #PurpleSycamore Acer pseudoplatanus 'purpureum' #uomtrees #treetrail

In summer, it’s easy to spot this tree with the distinctive colour of the underside of the leaves giving it an overall purple hue.

It has the same characteristics as the common sycamore except for the leaves which are deep green on the top surface and reddish purple on the back. These turn to an orange / red in autumn before falling. The helicopter-like seeds ripen in the early autumn months, rotating as they fall to help them to spread further from the parent tree.
