An American sycamore is a species of tree native to eastern North America, Latin name Plantanus occidentalis.
The American sycamore comes from the sycamore family.I no this because i am doin an science project about it.
A buttonwood is one of three types of tree, the mangrove, the American sycamore, or the California sycamore.

Twigs and leaves.
The short answer is not very much. The London Plane tree is a hybrid between the eurasian Plane tree Platanus Orientalisand the American Sycamore, Platanus Occidentalis. Both trees can be found in North America.While the native American tree is referred to in North America as the American sycamore, in Britain it is known as the American plane. In the old world, 'sycamore' refers either to the sycamore-maple native to there, or the Sycamore Fig, Ficus Sycomorus. Sycamore, or Plane tree, then is used interchangably for three different genus. Confusion abounds, but is understandable because the leaves are similar.Both the American Sycamore and the London Plane trees have mottled bark looking like camoflage, with the London Plane tree being usually more green, while the American Sycamore has more ghostly white. Both produce the characteristic 'button-balls' of seeds, with the American Sycamore having only one ball to a stalk, and the London Plane having two or three.The scientific name for the sycamore maple is Acer Pseudoplatanus and this is because of its visual similarity to the plane tree. Pseudo, as in someone who is pretentious, means that it is like platanus which is the name for plane trees, and Acer is the scientific name which covers the whole maple family.So, what are the similarities? The leaves are more or less of the same shape and the bark is flaky. The London plane and the American sycamore have like profiles, and are used to ornament towns.Comparing either the London Plane or the American sycamore to the Sycamore Maple, the biggest difference comes in the fruits. The sycamore maple has the characteristic maple 'keys' or what is called double samaras (see identification section), while the platanus species has round spiky balls.The sycamore maple comes from the maple family and like most maples, it is possible to extract a syrup from its sapwood. Don't expect it to be too tasty though: what we call maple syrup comes from primarily from the sugar maple, a tree distributed across central eastern North America.The twigs of the sycamore maple are windy and curled. This makes it stand out in the winter, though in truth it takes some practice before you master this way of recognizing it, but it is certainly worth looking out for because the silhouette of the sycamore is very beautiful.Dan Maddox - Landscape Technician, Windsor ON Canada; modified by Kevin Walters, Toronto

Sycamore is a hardwood.
The American Sycamore tree is one of the easiest trees to grow. The sycamore is a large rotten tree which grows between 75" and 100" tall. The sycamore should only be planted as a single yard specimen or in non-premium places. The tree can grow under nearly any condition so it doesn't require any protection.
Sycamore is a hardwood.
A sycamore is a type of deciduous tree. The sycamore tree grows near the creek. The bark of the sycamore tree flakes off in big chunks.
I recently found a leaf over 17.75". After doing research I can not find a bigger one. The American sycamore has the largest leaves on any tree native to the United States.
It depends on the geography. The sycamore tree in the Bible is a type of fig tree native to Africa and the Middle East. The sycamore found in the United Kingdom is a type of maple tree. North American sycamore trees are plane trees.
