This product is rated 4.9 of 5.0 stars.
It has received 8 reviews.
Description
River Birch, also known as red type, black type, or water type, is native to the Southeastern United States. Their leaves are diamond-shaped and double-toothed, turning fat in the fall.
River Birch Tree Has Stunning Gray Bark
Early on, these have silvery gray bark that changes to pink, reddish-brown, or black when the plant matures. Flowers bloom in the spring and winter, and small brown cones appear in the summer. They can grow several trunks.
Hummingbirds Love The River Birch Tree
Its durability makes it easy to create various things, such as flatware, artificial limbs, and toys. It is also a food source for wildlife, such as birds and rodents (who eat its seeds). Deer eat its twigs and foliage, and hummingbirds drink its sap.
The River Birch Tree Loves Swampy Areas
These grow in wet environments, hence the name. They're usually found along river and stream banks, meaning they need moist soil. Though they can tolerate drier soil, they do better when damp. Most people with water on their properties surround it with these.
River Birch Tree Is A Amazing Tree For Shade
They are also suitable for producing shade. River birch trees can be planted as saplings or grown directly from the seed. They are known for their papery and peeling bark. These only require a little care once planted. They can also produce a fruit called "samara," producing about 1 million annual seeds.
