Don't you love the white bark of this sycamore tree? The bark is always white, but the wintertime really shows off the gnarly twists and turns of this California Sycamore tree. This is a true California native Sycamore tree (Platanus racemosa), not the upright standard variety that is installed by landscapers. I love the way the lower branches come all the way to the ground, almost like it is leaning on its own elbows. I have watched this particular tree for a few years, and it gets twistier every year. This spectacular tree can be seen along the footpath at Riley Park in South Orange County, California.
