Description: Betula albosinensis ‘Bowling Green’ is a lovely selection with rich honey coloured bark which peels heavily in long creamy strips when the tree is older. Green leaves turn shades of yellow in the autumn.
History: Named after the original location of the first tree established in the UK in the gardens of Werrington Park, North Cornwall. The original tree was grown from seed collected by Ernest Wilson on one of his planting hunting trips to Western Sichuan, China 1901.
Betula ‘Bowling Green’ Growing Tips: They will succeed on most soils with certain species happy even in wet sites. Although tolerant of chalk soils they will not reach a maximum size in these conditions. Best planted in a full sun position.
