    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    An exciting, less seen River Birch. Its exfoliating bark exposes the brown under layer, making for year-round interest. A medium/fast grower, it will do as well in wet soils as well-drained. The leaves, which are smaller than the other River Birches, have ivory-white leaf margins and a green center. Pretty yellow fall color. Growth Rate medium
