There are three distinct types of sycamore trees. The North American sycamore is most common in the United States and parts of Canada, and are known as the largest of the species. This variety is known for its varied bark colors, which range from gray-green to whitewashed.
The more common name for the tree is a sycamore fig, sycomore fig, or a fig mulberry. The trees do produce fruits, like other figs, but they tend to be small. Yet they are still edible and the tree is cultivated for its fruit. The sycamore fig is mentioned in I Chronicles 27:28; Psalm 78:47; Amos 7:14; and Luke 19:4. The Hebrew name for the tree is shaqam and its Greek name is sukomoraia. In England, a sycamore is a type of maple tree (acer pseudoplatanus).
