Betula davurica (Dahurian Birch)

Betula davurica, also known as the Dahurian Birch, is a deciduous tree that typically grows to a height of 30-50 feet with a spread of 15-25 feet. It is known for its flaking bark, which peels off in thin papery sheets, revealing layers of different colors underneath. The leaves are dark green and turn yellow in the fall. This birch tree is resistant to bronze birch borers, making it a popular choice for landscapes.
