River Birch vs Amur Maackia
Betula nigra
Maackia amurensis
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
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.
Amur Maackia is a robust and pretty tree often used for urban decoration and landscaping. This tree has coppery peeling bark that can sometimes resemble lace. Its upright clusters of small white flowers usually bloom in midsummer. Amur Maackia's Small size makes it a great choice for small yards or limited space.
Note:This species is currently unavailable. Grow your own using Amur Maackia seeds at SeedTime.ca.
