Betula utilis subsp. jacquemontii 'Snow Queen'
Betula utilis subsp. jacquemontii 'Snow Queen' is an elegant deciduous tree renowned for its brilliant pure white bark, which provides outstanding year-round interest. Fresh green leaves emerge in spring, creating a light, airy canopy that contrasts beautifully with the bright trunk and branches.
Slender catkins add seasonal interest in spring, while the foliage turns attractive shades of golden yellow in autumn before falling to reveal the striking white bark once again. Its graceful form makes it particularly effective as a specimen tree or planted in groups for greater impact.
Reliable and highly ornamental, 'Snow Queen' is well suited to a wide range of garden styles and provides valuable structure through every season. It has also been awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit for its excellent garden performance.
