The Renaissance Oasis Birch tree is the result of 30 years of breeding, to give us a beautiful white birch, with a gorgeous peeling trunk, that is very highly resistant to bronze birch borer, and resistant to drought too. It is fast-growing, reaching 25 feet in 10 years, with a pyramidal crown of handsome leaves that turn orange-yellow in fall. The perfect choice for a first tree in a new garden, especially in colder zones, this tree will stand for many, many years, eventually reaching around 50 feet tall, and remain untroubled, but always beautiful.
Plant your Renaissance Oasis Birch in a sunny place, on moist, well-drained soils. Water regularly, especially when young. It tolerates alkaline soil, clay, areas periodically flooded, and salt-spray and salt runoff as well. Drought tolerant when established, and reliable in zone 7. Highly resistant to bronze birch borer, and tolerant of leaf-miner and other pests. Remove lower branches early, to avoid scarring the beautiful trunk.
