Birch Tree for Landscaping

The plant species Betula papyrifera, which is found in northern North America, is a short-lived species. Paper birch is also known as white birch because of the very thin, paper-like layers of bark that commonly peel away from the trunk in strips, like thin sheets of paper.

​Bark of older trees will be found to be pinkish or crimson in color, with thin vertical strips that flake away to reveal a brighter inner bark. Small black markings and scars are typically seen. Although the bark of birches becomes a reddish brown with many white lenticels from the age of five years onward, the trees may still be distinguished from other birches. The bark is quite resistant to weather. Oil content raises the oil's weather- and water-resistant qualities. Some times, when a paper birch falls down, the decaying wood rots away, leaving the hollow bark intact

Paper birch is sometimes called white birch because the thin white bark typically peels off the trunk in flakes like paper. Paper birch is a prominent plant when it comes to the recruitment of moose into burnt areas because moose consume the berry-bearing twigs.
Paper birch grows rapidly but only lives for a few years. It is also vulnerable to borers since it is grown far south of its native area. For turned goods, woodenware, pulp, and fuel, the close-grained virtually white wood is employed. the water-permeable bark was utilized for roofs and boats by the North American Indians
Paper birch trees (Betula papyriferia), commonly called canoe birches, are endemic to damp stream banks and lakesides in the Northeast. Often, birches are grown in clusters of three to nine trees. These clusters are referred to as “clumping birches.”

Place in full light and damp yet drained soil. Please. The trees are adapted to most soil types so long as the summer is cold. Long winters and gentle summers are preferable. Paper birches, especially damaging bronze birch borers, are sensitive to a number of insects.
