Betula utilis 'Doorenbos' Summer This cultivar is a sport'Doorenbos' is one of the most dramatic of the white stemmed birches, whose ethereal bark peels to reveal a pale orange beneath. More formal, sturdy and upright in habit than the native Silver birch, with dark green leaves that give golden autumn tones. The bark can, ever so gently, be scrubbed to restore its brilliant white colour. Hardy. A shallow rooting tree.
