Betula albosinensis, also known as the Chinese Paper Birch, is a stunning ornamental tree that grows up to 100ft high. This deciduous tree is native to Western China and features peeling brown bark that reveals other shades and colors including cream when newly exposed. In spring, brown catkins are produced. Betula albosinensis is a larger tree and should therefore be given some room to grow. This tree is highly sought after for its very ornamental value, especially its striking red and multicolored bark. It is ideal for parks and large gardens. If you're looking for an impressive tree that will enhance the look of your outdoor space, the Betula albosinensis is an excellent choice.
