White Birch Shade Tree
White Birch Shade Tree
Striking Pure White Bark

  (2 customer reviews)

The bark of the White Birch turns white as the tree matures. Leaves turn gold in fall, flutter in the breeze as briskly as quaking aspen. Grows 2-3 feet a year until 40-50 feet tall.

Gurney’s trees are shipped as dormant bareroot stock that leafs out into handsome, healthy specimens that do our lawn and landscape proud.

Bareroot. Zones 2-7.

Comments: Bark turns white as the tree matures. Usually has 3-4 distinct trunks. (Our Experts Comments: The catalog picture can be mis-leading. The majority of wholesale nurseries will plant 3-5 seedlings in the same hole and grow on as a clump. A single stem can produce additional trunks after 'established' and cut to the ground.) Can give landscapes a woodsy look, even in the city. Leaves turn a golden color in the fall. Tree is drought and wet soil tolerant, but is prone to ice damage.

Single Not like the picture at all

This came as a single branch NOT the cluster that most people would plant. NOT like the picture or wording at all.

beautiful birches
Reviewed By: Kristi Geurts (Claremont, CA)
I ordered 3 of these trees 3 years ago and they are perfect. They adapted well to my soil and to the hot climate here (lately it gets well over 100 in the summer). I took a few trees out of my backyard just to make room for 3 more of these graceful trees.
