Betula nigra, commonly called river birch, is a vigorous, fast-growing, medium-sized, Missouri native deciduous tree which occurs on floodplains, swampy bottomlands and along streams throughout the State. In cultivation, it can be trained as either a single trunk or multi-trunked tree. As a single trunk tree, it develops a pyramidal habit when young, but matures to a more rounded shape typically growing 40-70' tall. Multi-trunked trees form a more irregular crown and are generally considered to be the superior growth habit for this species. Salmon-pink to reddish brown bark exfoliates to reveal lighter inner bark. Leathery, diamond-shaped, medium to dark green leaves (1.5-3.5" long) with doubly toothed margins turn yellow in fall. Monoecious flowers appear in drooping, brownish male catkins and smaller, upright, greenish female catkins.
Note: The plant is delivered in its pot, securely fastened with several layers of transparent tape to prevent shuffling and movement during transportation. The plant gets to you with little to no damageÑit's extremely safe and secure. For years, we have been trl years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring. Due to limitations set by the Department of Agriculture, we are unable to ship certain plants and sizes to California. "

Q: How do I track my shipment?
A: You will receive an email with a tracking number from FEDEX or USPS that will allow you to follow the progress of your delivery.
IMPORTANT:
FEDEX/USPS WILL LEAVE THE PLANTS AT YOUR DOORSTEP, AND IF LEFT OUTSIDE FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME. DURING THE HEAT OF THE SUMMERS OR COLD OF THE WINTERS, THE PLANT MAY BE PERMANENTLY DAMAGED. So kindly ensure someone is present to receive the plant and keep it in a safe, cool place as soon as possible.
Q: When will the plants be shipped?
A: Most of the time, you should receive your plants in 7–15 days. Plants are typically shipped on Monday or Tuesday after the purchase is received. To ensure that the plants arrive at your location within a week, we send the plants on Monday and Tuesday. Plants will not be pleased if they are left in the warehouses over the weekend because they are perishable goods.
(The shipping dates can be subject to changes, due to various extraneous circumstances-like weather)
Q: What happens if the plants perish, are defective, killed, damaged, or are sent the incorrect thing?
A: RETURNS AND REPLACEMENTS ARE AS EASY AS POSSIBLE WITH US. On the majority of our returns to Amazon and eBay, we provide free delivery credits and new items.
However, if there is anything wrong with the plant, please let us know as soon as possible (within two days of receiving the cargo), and if possible, give us some information and a few photos. Following evaluation, we will either send you a replacement plant within the following 15 to 30 days, at your request, or give a refund.
