Platanus ( /ˈplætənəs/) is a small genus of trees native to the Northern Hemisphere. They are the sole living members of the family Platanaceae.
They are all large trees to 30–50 m tall. All are deciduous, except for P. kerrii, and are mostly found in riparian or other wetland habitats in the wild, though proving drought-tolerant in cultivation. The hybrid London Plane has proved particularly tolerant of urban conditions.
