Betula papyrifera
The northern landscape seems incomplete without the dazzling bark of the Canoe or Paper Birch. Considered among the world's most beautiful trees, this elegant native prefers cool sites. Tolerates shade while young. Unsuited to linear plantings: best in pure groves hi-lighted against a stand of conifers. Bark turns white around the fifth year.
