Hertiage Birch trees are known for their ability to grow in wet soils. The unique bark features really set this tree apart, with the bark starting a cream to brownish color and exfoliating to reveal a white inner bark. These fast growing trees have a pyramidal habit and mature to 40-70' tall and 40-60' wide. Birch trees work great in low-lying areas or around bodies of water since they enjoy moist soil.
