Want a Tree?

I went to the Master Gardeners plant sale yesterday and there was a lady sitting outside the door giving away sycamore trees for free. They had ordered 5 from a nursery in northern Iowa and they sent her 100 so she called them and they told her to keep them. That was why she is giving them away free.
They like damp soil. These are native to Iowa and were started here.
I have at least 5. Anyone interested?
I took a picture of a tree in Ames awhile back and come to find out it is a sycamore! So this is how these trees will look when mature. This picture was taken early in April. I understand they get their leaves late.
