Betula papyrifera

Betula papyrifera

Betula papyrifera is a species of tree native to northern North America. In Poland, it is cultivated as an ornamental plant.

It reaches a height of up to 20 meters.

The leaves are ovoid and doubly serrated. They have 5-10 pairs of main veins.

They are slightly hairy on the upper side. Their undersides have numerous glands, which are hairy at the corners of the veins. In summer, they are matte and dark green, turning yellow in autumn.

The chalky white bark with a pink tint peels off in thin circular sheets.

The branches are stiff and upward-curving.

The shoots have numerous warts; young shoots are hairy, but later become bare.
