RIVER BIRCH

RIVER BIRCH Betula nigra It is one of the very best fast-growing shade trees, and it has colorful exfoliating bark which makes it beautiful n the winter. This tree grows at a medium to fast rate, and can grow up tp 13" to more than 24" per year. It is a heat tolerant tree. The roots of River Birch are far reaching but are non-invasive. Since the tree prefers to grow in moist, wet and clay soils therefore the roots do not penetrate deep in search of water since it is easily available in the upper layer of the soil. Plant approx. 20ft from your home. Host to Tier Swallowrail & Crescents Butterflies.
