Description
Add year-round beauty to your garden with the striking Paper Birch (Betula papyrifera). Known for its stunning white bark that peels away in layers, this tree offers an eye-catching feature in any landscape. Growing to a height of 40-60 feet, Paper Birch provides shade and adds texture with its pyramidal shape. In the spring, you’ll enjoy its small, yellow-green flowers, followed by attractive green leaves that turn yellow in fall. Paper Birch thrives in moist, well-drained soil and is perfect for larger gardens, woodland settings, or as a specimen tree. Its hardy nature, resistance to pests, and ability to support wildlife make it a must-have for eco-friendly gardens.
