River Birch vs Sandbar WillowBetula nigra Salix exigua SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2019) 
River Birch has beautiful, peeling, brown bark that reveals camel-colored and pink beneath. It is more borer resistant than white bark birches, which makes it a much longer-lived landscape tree.
Sandbar Willow is a deciduous species native to much of North America. This mid-sized, fast-growing shrub can be found in very wet areas, making it an ideal plan to use in a wet area with erosion risk. RIVER BIRCH QUICK FACTSSANDBAR WILLOW QUICK FACTS
