Betula utilis HWJK 2250

Description

A rare and outstanding Heronswood collection that shows coppery shags of bark among stripes of bright green and tapered dark green leaves that turn a luscious buttery yellow in autumn. Collected near Thudam in remote northeastern Nepal, a small hamlet where all bridges and fencing were made from this utilitarian species. Eventually grows to a medium-sized tree in any soil and full sun.
