Heritage® Birch Tree
Description
A Missouri native. This low maintenance tree is vigorous and fast-growing. Well known for its incredible Salmon-pink to reddish brown peeling bark that exfoliates to reveal a lighter inner bark. Perfect for wet, acidic soils and is perhaps the most adaptable and heat tolerant of the birches. The Heritage® can be trained as either a single trunk or multi-trunked tree. Resistant to birch borers and leaf spot disease.
