River Birch Trees are loved for their papery cinnamon bark and graceful crown. Their leaves turn bright yellow, telling you that fall is on the way. The problem with the old River Birch trees was that they grew slow and were not as adaptable as our customers liked. The new Heritage River Birch™ grows faster, is cold hardier and is very tolerant of flooding or drought. Adapts to almost any soil or climate. A true “plant it and forget it” tree. This means that you can raise your properties value quickly. Plus - years from now, you won’t have to worry about a freak drought, cold or rainy season harming your tree. Heritage River Birches are able to withstand these harsh tests of nature. A beautiful tree that is ideal for yards, parks or campuses. Very popular for landscaping because of its distinctive bark and graceful shape. Matures to a height of approximately 40-50 feet tall.
