General Information
Dakota Pinnacle Birch is a great tree that will look good in different areas of your landscape. This tree was developed at North Dakota State University. It has a columnar shape, with a narrowly pyramidal growth habit. The foliage tends to grow in a dense fashion. In the spring, the leaves emerge with a dark green color. In the fall the leaves transition to a golden-yellow, lasting for a good period of time. The bark also provides good ornamental appeal. It begins when young with a grey to orangish appearance. Over time this matures to a beautiful white color. It also begins to exfoliate, giving extra ornamental appeal!
