Ornamental and Shade Trees 
Betula - Birch 
Birch are beautiful, graceful trees, thriving in moist as well 
as in high, dry and stony places. They are very attractive as 
specimens, but also group well with pines, hemlock and other 
evergreens. 
Our Policy Regarding Planting of Birch 
Birch must be planted in the winter season. This season 
starts in January and extends through March and on oc- 
casion into early April. Under no circumstances will we plant 
after April 10.
