Paper Birch
-
- B&B multi-stem
A fast growing oval tree. The bark becomes creamy white by the third or fourth year, considered to be the whitest of the birches. It will peel to expose a reddish orange inner bark as the tree matures. The dark green foliage turns yellow in the fall. It grows in sun to part shade and prefers a moist, fertile soil. The wood is used for ice cream sticks and toothpicks.
