River Birch Tree – Hardy & Ornamental Shade Tree

• The River Birch Tree (Betula nigra) is a highly adaptable, fast-growing deciduous tree known for its striking peeling bark and resistance to pests and diseases. This ornamental shade tree thrives in wet, lowland areas but is also drought-tolerant once established, making it an excellent choice for various landscapes. Its beautiful cinnamon-colored bark, which exfoliates in layers, adds year-round visual interest, while its lush green foliage provides excellent shade during the warmer months. In the fall, the leaves turn a warm golden-yellow, creating a stunning seasonal display.

• When planted with Nutra-Pro 1st Year Fertilizer Packs, Soil Moist Transplant Mix, Max Growth Tree Shelters, and Weed Pro Weed Mats, the River Birch establishes strong roots and grows into a hardy, long-lasting tree that enhances any property.
