Betula ‘Heritage’ is a vigorous fast-growing tree with layers of cinnamon salmon and brown bark peeling back in big sheets to reveal creamy white inner bark. It can be grown as either a single trunk or multi-stemmed tree and is especially effective when multiple trees are placed together in a grove. Many birds love the seed. Trees also provide great cover and nesting sites. Good yellow fall color and excellent disease and pest resistance.
