Learn About Your New Betula pendula 'Nigra' - Black Birch
Betula pendula 'Nigra' - Black Birch is a fast-growing, hardy deciduous tree, valued for its striking dark bark, weeping branches, and vibrant golden autumn foliage. As a unique cultivar of the Silver Birch, it offers year-round interest with its distinctive trunk texture and elegant form. This low-maintenance feature tree is ideal for avenue plantings, screening, and mixed landscapes, providing shade, height, and seasonal colour.
Highly adaptable, Betula pendula 'Nigra' - Black Birch thrives in cool to temperate climates, tolerating frost, coastal winds, and a variety of soil types. It can be planted in clusters for a striking grove effect or spaced further apart to create strong individual specimens. Its upright growth habit with weeping branches makes it a top choice for residential gardens, parks, and streetscapes.
