Sycamore Maple

The Sycamore Maple (Acer pseudoplatanus) is a large tree species of the Aceracy family common in Europe. It is a tree with a slender stem up to 35-40 m high, the bark is first smooth and yellowish grey, then reddish grey and darker and darker on old trees where it detaches, The leaves are opposite, deciduous, palmate with five pointed lobes, with obtuse teeth, separated by acute sinuses.

This species makes the forest stronger and more resilient, which improves the health of the entire plot by promoting biodiversity. Its expected profitability is linked to the logging of the stand where it grows.

About Louverné forest

Located in the northwest of France, this land of about 12 hectares will soon see the growth of a peri-urban forest, a forest placed between an urban area and the countryside. Cut by National Road 162, the forest will be neighbours to the Bigottière estate and its 19th-century castle. The land is divided into three plots, one on the top of a hill with a northeast-facing slope and another on the west bank of the Pont Martin stream.
There are two beautiful ponds with splendid den trees and a wetland. The flora mainly consists of Ash, Common Oak, Norway Maple and Sycamore Maple, Herb-Robert Geranium, Cleaver, Hawthorn and Wild cherry. We plan to add more plantations to the area.
