This birch has the best from both of its parents. From 'Whitespire' it inherited beautiful white bark and resistance to the bronze birch borer. From 'Crimson Frost' comes burgundy-red foliage. The combination of two colors makes this an outstanding specimen tree. Much faster growing than 'Crimson Frost'. Thrives in moist soil. Winter water is crucial.

Branches are slender and perfectly pendulous. Truly spectacular with age. Excellent specimen for any garden.
