Betula utilis
De Betula utilis (Himalayaberk) is een sierlijke boom die direct opvalt door zijn opvallend witte, afschilferende schors. Deze prachtige schors zorgt ook in de winter voor een decoratief accent in de tuin. Met zijn smalle, opgaande groeiwijze en fijn groen blad dat in de herfst goudgeel kleurt, is deze berk een elegante keuze voor elke tuin of park. De Betula utilis is ideaal als solitaire meerstam of hoogstam en brengt een verfijnde, natuurlijke schoonheid in elke omgeving, het hele jaar door.
