Description
- An elegant variety of birch tree appreciated for its paper-thin peeling bark
- A broadly conical, open branched tree, the paper birch has the traditional white peeling birch bark
- Fruits brown berries in summer, which will bring flocks of birds to your garden
- Features ovate, irregularly toothed, dark green leaves which turn bright yellow in Autumn
- Older Paper Birch trees develop attractive, peeling layers of bark
- In spring, tiny yellowish brown male flowers appear in drooping catkins, while greenish female flowers appear in upright catkins
- Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
- Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
