Description
Betula nigra
The River Birch (Betula nigra) is a medium-sized deciduous tree native to the eastern and central United States, commonly found along riverbanks, wetlands, and floodplains. It typically grows 40–70 feet tall with a pyramidal to rounded crown. The tree is recognized for its distinctive, peeling, cinnamon-colored bark, which adds ornamental value. Its leaves are diamond-shaped, with serrated edges, turning yellow in the fall. In spring, the River Birch produces small, greenish catkins. Highly adaptable to wet soils and resistant to pests, the River Birch is often used in landscaping for erosion control, shade, and its striking bark.
