Heritage is the most popular River Birch cultivar thanks to its heat tolerance and resistance to bronze birch borer. Often sold as single-trunk or clump form - clump form is typically 20-30% more expensive.
Pro tip: Decide on single-trunk vs clump form before shopping - prices vary significantly. Fall planting is ideal for this moisture-loving tree.
