Royal FrostŪ Birch
The Royal FrostŪ Birch, Betula x 'Royal Frost', is a newer selection of Birch with burgundy-red summer foliage that contrasts beautifully with the crisp white bark. The beautiful glossy deep burgundy red leaf color, and cinnamon to white exfoliating bark, puts this birch tree in a class of it's own. The beautiful leaf color holds very well throughout the summer. Fall is a festival of colors ranging from bright red, orange, yellow and purple. Truly a spectacular tree for all seasons. This birch has a gracefully upright, yet somewhat pendulous habit. It is bronze Birch Borer resistant. Royal Frost Birch is easy to grow, and adapts to most conditions, and it grows in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Plant against a darker background or green lawn to highlight pale trunks which will add interest to the yard. ... details
