Grown for its beautiful "exfoliating" (peeling)
bark AND 'Dura-Heat' has been developed to grow smaller than other
River Birch AND to have virtually no summer leaf-drop!
Trees grow quickly, but mature at about half the size of other birch,
making them a good choice for spots too small for larger trees.
Leaves are smaller, darker green and glossier than other birch. Leaves
turn brilliant yellow before dropping for winter.
SINGLE-TRUNK birch are a perfect for limited spaces where you don't
have the width available for a triple-trunk birch.
SINGLE-TRUNK 'Dura-Heat' birch grow quickly to mature at 15-20' tall
by ONLY 8-10' wide. Expect 2-3' of growth a year.
Plant in sun to light shade.
All birch have vigorous root systems. Plant 100' away from septic
systems. Plant anywhere if you are on a sewer system. |
