European Silver Birch

(Betula pendula )
This plant is currently unavailable.

This species originates in Europe and Asia, but can be found in other areas, including North America. The silver birch is a very nice ornamental tree because of its silvery white bark and slender, drooping branches. Beautiful as a specimen tree, but also nice when planted in small groups (groups of 3-5-7 trees).
 

A mature silver birch can reach an average height of 15 to 25 meters. The maximum possible height is about 35 meters, which a birch will reach in ideal conditions. A mature tree`s width will be between 6 to 10 meters. From late spring to summer, leaves are green to dark-green, and turn golden yellow in autumn. Excellent as a shade tree, grows very well in any kind (even the poorest) of soil.
