Description
The River Birch, or Black Birch, is a tree native to the United States.
Betula nigra is a tree with a supple and graceful habit, with light green deciduous foliage that turns golden yellow in autumn. It grows rapidly and will reach an adult height of between 10 and 15 metres.
The Black Birch owes its name to its particularly decorative bark, with brown-black tints and red reflections, which peels off in sheets to reveal a grey-orange trunk.
Betula Nigra is a very hardy tree, capable of withstanding long, harsh winters, frosts down to -20°C, as well as drought and wind. It requires little care, is very easy to maintain and adapts to all soils and requires exposure to sun or half-shade. For a nice effect, you can also plant ground cover species such as bear's garlic or Roman chamomile at the foot of the tree.
The Black Birch will be perfect in a bed to highlight the changing colours of its bark in winter, but it can also be used in a row or as a windbreak hedge.
