Betula Jacquemontii
Betula jacquemontii is a striking, medium-sized deciduous tree renowned for its brilliant, powdery white bark that creates a dramatic focal point year-round. Native to the western Himalayas, this elegant birch is highly sought after for its clean, upright form and ornamental appeal.
In spring and summer the tree is clothed in rich dark green foliage, providing a lush canopy that contrasts beautifully with its luminous bark. As autumn arrives, the leaves turn vivid shades of golden yellow, creating a spectacular seasonal display.
Ideal as a specimen tree in gardens or parks, Betula jacquemontii thrives in well-drained soil and full sun to light shade. Its tidy growth habit, combined with exceptional bark colour, makes it a favourite for both formal and naturalistic landscapes.
Hardy and adaptable, it is also tolerant of a range of soil conditions, provided moisture is consistent.
