Betula pendula 'Laciniata' Betula pendula 'Laciniata'

This tree resembles B. pendula 'Crispa'. It is a slender tree with a narrow upright crown that is formed by a more or less upright main branch. The diagonally spreading branches have clearly pendulous twigs. These are long and slender, creating a graceful look. The trunk is white and is slightly flaking. Mature trunks become coarse at the base with deep fissures and turn dark to nearly black green. Twigs are red brown and have wart-like lenticels. The leaf is more deeply dissected than of the B. pendula 'Crispa' and the margin is irregularly toothed. Another difference is that the buds on the young twigs are slightly more acuminate and greener. The autumn colour is yellow to yellow-brown. Hillocks, soil compaction and changing water tables have a negative influence on the health of this birch. The tree is shallow-rooting. Does not withstand coastal winds well.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from noiembrie 2024.
