Betula utilis ‘Mt Luoji’

From the opposite end of the Himalaya to the white barked var. jacquemontii, this selection from Mt Luoji, Sichuan, China, could not be more different. Bark on this one has a prominent base layer of black-purple (with occasional white bloom), overlain with peeling sheets of paper-thin rich copper-orange which look fantastic backlit with low winter-sun. A medium sized tree, especially effective if planted as a group.
