The Renaissance Reflection® Birch tree is a selected form of the native white or paper birch, which has pure white bark on its tall, graceful trunk. This tree grows up to 6 feet a year, and within 10 years it will be about 35 feet tall, with a pyramidal crown 20 feet across. It is perfect as a specimen on a lawn, especially in newer gardens, and most important of all, this variety is highly resistant to the deadly bronze birch borer, which without chemical control almost always kills white birch within a few years, especially in warmer zones.
- Beautiful white bark glows across your garden
- Beautiful golden yellow fall leaves
- Grows up to 6 feet a year
- Highly resistant to the deadly bronze birch borer
- Grows well in all the coldest zones
Grow the Renaissance Reflection® Birch in full sun, on moist, well-drained soil. It usually prefers acid soils, but this rugged selection is tolerant of alkaline soils, clay, wet soil, and salt spray and salt-contaminated soil too. It is very hardy, surviving in zone 2 and growing well even in zone 7, where other forms of this tree do badly. Although tolerant of borer, other less-important pests are possible, but not deadly. Avoid dry soil and water regularly during dry conditions.
