Below, we’ll take a closer look at Betula albosinensis ‘Fascination’. The tree has a beautiful, upright, pyramidal, and somewhat dense crown, and its growth rate is relatively slow.
It’s a beautiful tree for slightly wider streets, and it’s also well-suited for use on medians or in parks. Keep in mind, however, that the tree doesn’t tolerate paved surfaces very well.
The white, peeling trunk with dark red hues is a major ornamental feature. In the spring, the tree produces pale yellow catkins as the leaves develop. The dark green leaves have serrated edges and a slightly pointed tip. In the fall, the leaves turn a golden-yellow color.
It's a high-quality tree with an attractive growth habit that you might want to include in a planting plan.
