White Birch Tree

Betula pendula, commonly known as the silver birch, is a medium-sized deciduous tree celebrated for its striking white peeling bark and graceful, pendulous branches. It typically exhibits a pyramidal form when young, maturing into an oval crown. The triangular, glossy green leaves turn a vibrant yellow in autumn. This hardy pioneer species thrives in moist, well-drained soils and full sun. It is a popular choice for ornamental landscapes, providing year-round interest and supporting wildlife.
