Narrative
Developed in 1968 and 1970 by Frank S. Santamour, Jr. (US National Arboretum), by crossing a P. orientalis of Turkish origin with P. occidentalis. Evaluated for 12 years for growth and landscape attributes in field and street plantings. 'Columbia', released in August 1984, is a vigorous, single-stemmed tree to 20m tall. Leaves distinctly 5-lobed. Fruit balls generally 2 or 3 per stalk, occasionally single or in 4's. Resistant to sycamore anthracnose disease and to trunk decay caused by wounds.. Adaptable and tolerant of most soil and moisture conditions, including compacted or high pH soils.
