Worldwide Shipping Betula Nigra 'heritage' Tree Great Gift Idea [9JaOmBVZ]

This spectacular River Birch is, in our opinion, a tree rivalled in its suitability for wet sites only by Alders and Willows. The shaggy, ruffled bark displays an array of colours and makes for brilliant year round interest. Creamy-grey and cinnamon brown base tones are highlighted with hints of pinky-orange, purple and gold.

Betula nigra 'Heritage' also has pretty, diamond shaped green leaves that turn golden in autumn. The statuesque form will look stunning planted in a group or individually as a specimen tree. In its single stem form, 'Heritage' a height and spread of 8 x 4 metres can be expected in 20 years.

Tolerant of all soil types, Betula nigra 'Heritage' copes with clay, chalk and wet conditions, plus once established it will also thrive in less moist conditions. This beautiful River Birch tree would make a wonderfully tactile addition to any garden all year round.
