Betula utilis var. jacquemontii ‘Moonbeam’

Description

Ideal for the smaller garden or where space is limited, this lovely, compact birch is slow growing but develops it’s stunning, luminous-white, peeling bark relatively early and should show signs of it within a couple of years of planting. Leaves turn a beautiful butter-yellow in autumn.

Height in 10 years is around 3 metres and ultimately it will reach a height of between 4 and 5 metres with a neat, rounded crown. Water well before planting and while establishing.

• Common Names:Himalayan birch 'Moonbeam'.
