G291-075

MULTI-STEMMED Himalayan Birch

The pure white form of B. utilis. Much sought after for its stark white bark, peeling in parchment-like sheets which are orange-buff beneath. The ghostly effect is particularly impressive in the winter or when grown against a dark background.

Doorenbos is a well-established cultivar introduced by a famous dutch tree specialist. It is also known by the trade name ‘Snow Queen’.

Height: 9-15 metres, moderately spreading crown.
