Our Range of Copper-Barked Birches. Appreciated for their natural elegance, these birches with bark adorned in coppery and silvery reflections bring a luminous and warm touch to the garden, especially in winter. The Betula albosinensis 'Fascination' features smooth, shiny bark ranging from coppery pink to orange, which exfoliates in thin strips. The Betula utilis var. jacquemontii, although primarily white, sometimes displays copper hues that intensify with age. Its cultivar 'Nepalese Orange' is particularly remarkable in this regard: initially cream-colored, it peels in patches of pale coppery orange that darken with stunning metallic reflections. As for the Betula nigra 'Heritage', it offers bark that peels away to reveal tones ranging from cream to reddish-brown.
These trees, highly robust, thrive in moist to wet soils. Their slender and graceful habit makes them ideal specimens for contemporary gardens or Nordic-inspired beds.
