Birch

Our many years of experience growing birch from seed, micropropagation and cuttings has made Evergreen Nursery a leader in birch propagation. We offer the newest varieties as well as the tried and true.

For the grower our bare root birch is a great liner. Plants are lined out in our field beds and grown one season. Cool summer temperatures and sandy soil promote sturdy tops and heavy well branched root systems. In late fall we dig the trees and store them over winter in our specially designed cooler that provides optimal temperature and humidity.  No sweating is required when you receive our liners. They are ready to plant and grow on.














Our 38 cell river birch liners are started from a hardy seed source. Seedlings are transplanted into 38 cell trays that have deep inward ridges and a large drainage hole for optimal root training and pruning. Liners spend the growing season outside, forming strong stems and roots. Plants can be shipped from late fall through spring and planted into your field or containers.

Our #10 container grown birch are a big hit in the garden centers and are available mid- summer through the following spring. They are 6 – 10’ in height and a minimum of 3 stems per clump for $49.95. We have Renaissance Reflection®, Whitespire, Heritage® and the purple leafed Royal Frost®. This size container is something your customer can bring home themselves and plant without hiring a landscaper to do it. This is what people are looking for, something they can do themselves to save a little green.
