River Birch vs Black CherryBetula nigra Prunus serotina ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW 
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.
Black Cherry is common in eastern North America but a rare find elsewhere. This tree is shade tolerant and is often found in old fields, forest openings, and along fencerows. RIVER BIRCH QUICK FACTSBLACK CHERRY QUICK FACTS
