River Birch vs Royal Frost BirchBetula nigra Betula x Royal Frost ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON 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.
Royal Frost Birch is a beautiful, cold hardy tree. It features burgundy-red-purple foliage, turning a showy yellow-orange-red in fall. The attractive white bark is striking on a winter landscape. RIVER BIRCH QUICK FACTSROYAL FROST BIRCH QUICK FACTS
