*Birch, ‘Heritage River’

This is a beautiful, multi-branched tree that provides unusual winter interest. Its bare branches and trunk display highly textured and colorful, peeling bark. Exceptional for night lighting if planted near the front of the house due to its upright vase shape. This versatile, heat-tolerant tree thrives in wet soils yet adapts to drier areas once established.

The Heritage River Birch is perhaps one of the most culturally adaptable of all the birches. It grows well in acidic, loamy, moist, well-drained soil. The River Birch can handle semi-aquatic conditions but can also tolerate drier soils. Although these trees are heat tolerant, they benefit from a cool and consistently moist root system. Planting shade tolerant understory plants and applying mulch will help shade the ground keeping the soil cooler.

Heritage River Birch trees are attractive ornamental, shade trees commonly used as specimen or small grouping plantings and for erosion management along stream banks and ponds.
