Manchurian Birch 'Parkland Pillar'
FamilyBetulaceae
Betula platyphylla 'Parkland Pillar' is a narrow, slender birch developed specifically for cold climates. Its rich green foliage provides ideal density for hedges or row plantings, and turns beautiful yellow in the fall. The light, smooth, silvery-white bark provides striking winter interest. Highly disease-resistant and undemanding, this cultivar tolerates drought and poor soils well, as long as they remain well-drained. 'Parkland Pillar' is a perfect solution for urban landscaping or projects requiring trees with a low footprint and high visual impact.
