Several Seasons of Color From One Tough Tree

Why Dura Heat® River Birch Trees?

A beautiful, fast-growing shade tree that thrives from North to South, the Dura Heat® River Birch is one-of-a-kind. This lovely tree grows in cold areas and hot and humid conditions, a span that includes frigid Maine and Minnesota all the way down to hot and humid Florida and Texas.

Plus, River Birches tolerate soggy conditions where other trees won’t grow. If you’re trying to landscape a low-lying area that floods regularly, or you have heavy clay soil, this tree is exactly what you need. Its dense root system tolerates dense, wet soil, and even regular flooding and standing water.

Its fast growth means your landscape fills in quickly. These trees can grow up to three feet each year, so they reach mature heights much faster than other landscape trees. They're also fairly compact and can be planted as a specimen in an urban yard, where they tolerate pollutants with ease.

The tree came in excellent

The tree came in excellent condition! I did purchase it late in fall so I can’t say I saw a lot of growth but it did not drop many leaves and it has turned a nice golden color. I’m reasonably sure it will do great this coming spring!

Alive and well

When this birch arrived last fall, it was withered with minimal leaves. After emailing with FGT, they assured me it was well. Here it is a year later and completely full. It has grown at least a foot taller and much wider in only its first year. Now that it is established, I imagine it will grow much more in the coming growing seasons.

Lost most of its leaves during the first week with a heat spell but has recovered

There was a heat spell during the week of transport, but we got the tree in the ground the day it arrived. New leaves are coming out not and the tree seems very happy
