I've never thought about how many types of birch trees there are before. I wanted a river birch planted in my yard and the landscaper messed up and planted a Japanese Birch. It was in the ground before I realized the mistake. I think they're both different than the paper birch in my photos that grows in the forests of the northern part of the state.
It seems to be doing well and I'm sure it will be a pretty tree but I still want to plant River Birch! I've been thinking about where I can have one planted next spring. I have three ash trees in my yard that are dying from a borer that is attacking the trees. I've already had three cut down and I have two more that still have leaves on them but don't look real healthy. So planting trees is important!
Sounds good. I don't think I've ever lived anywhere with a big enough garden to consider planting trees.
Nowadays we just have a few pots and a couple of hay baskets. Which reminds me, we bought some violas before we went away and didn't have time to plant them.
It's been pretty warm since we've been back. I hope they're not dead. I forgot all about them. 😱

Yeah, I had a look on Google this morning but it wasn't clear @melinda010100.
Are you happy with your Japanese Birch not it's in?
