Description

Betula nigra, commonly known as river birch, is a deciduous tree native to the eastern United States. Typically growing 40 to 70 feet tall with a broad, spreading canopy, river birch is distinguished by its distinctive reddish-brown to grayish-brown bark, which peels in curly strips, revealing a lighter inner bark. The leaves are diamond-shaped with serrated edges, turning yellow in the fall. In early spring, river birch produces catkins, which are long, cylindrical clusters of small flowers, followed by small winged seeds in the summer.

River birch thrives in moist, well-drained soils and is often found along stream banks, riverbeds, and floodplains, though it is also adaptable to drier conditions once established. It is valued for its ability to tolerate wet soils and occasional flooding, making it an excellent choice for erosion control and riparian restoration. River birch wood is relatively soft and not commonly used for lumber, but it can be employed in some specialty applications, including firewood and small craft projects. River birch is also a popular ornamental tree, prized for its striking bark, rapid growth, and adaptability to urban environments. It provides habitat and food for a variety of wildlife, making it an important species in naturalized landscapes and gardens.
