River Birch vs Armstrong MapleBetula nigra Acer x freemanii Armstrong SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 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.
The Armstrong Maple has a narrow, upright columnar growth habit. This stunning tree has showy leaves that range from yellow, orange to red in the fall. It is an attractive hybrid of the Red Maple and Silver Maple. It prefers acidic soils and will have some tolerance for drought once mature. RIVER BIRCH QUICK FACTSARMSTRONG MAPLE QUICK FACTS
