description for "Birch: Betula pendula"
Graceful weeping branches and clean white bark make this one of the most beautiful ornamental trees. Even in winter, without foliage, the delicate pendulous branches make a lovely silhouette. While it is not too particular as to soil, the Cut Leaf Weeping Birch prefers a moist location and a sunny spot. About 35 feet at maturity. Plant 35 feet apart.
