1 Live Plant White Paper Birch Betula papyrifera

White Paper Birch is a cold-hardy deciduous tree admired for its striking white, peeling bark and graceful form. It brings year-round structure to the landscape, with bright green foliage in summer that turns golden yellow in autumn and distinctive catkins in spring. This plant is offered as one live plant ready to establish in the garden. It suits temperate landscapes, woodland edges, and larger yards where its architectural bark can be appreciated.
This birch is primarily grown as an ornamental specimen for its luminous white bark and dependable fall color. It works well in naturalized plantings, mixed borders, and open lawns, gradually forming a multi-stemmed or single-trunked habit over time. Grow it where its shallow roots can spread and where soil stays consistently moist.
