Buttonwood
Latin Name:      Platanus occidentalis location:      eastern half of United States
The Buttonwood, originally named Platanus occidentalis, is normally found around eastern half of United States. To recognize it it is mainly a large, deciduous tree, making it a very interesting plant! In the summer, its foliage changes to a new form, more or less alternate leaf arrangement and in the automn its foliage then is turning yellow-brown. The Buttonwood (Platanus occidentalis) grows flowers that are monoecious, with separate male and female flowers and contains fruits that are rounded, tannish brown fruit. It has a beautiful Bark, where we see exfoliating bark on it. A fact to point at on the way it is cultured is that moist, deep, rich well-drained soil However, a bad thing with the Buttonwood can be that can be pollarded and pleached readily You can recognize a Platanus occidentalis having its no terminal bud. The Buttonwood's propagation method is uncommon since it is mainly done by cuttings
