Betula alleghaniensis (species) (Betula (genus), Betulaceae (family), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Species of ornamental and timber tree native to the northeastern part of North America. It is among the largest of birches, reaching 30 m (100 feet) on cool, moist bottomlands and on drier soils to elevations of 1,950 m. On limbs and young trunks the silvery yellow bark peels in paper-thin curls; on old trunks it is red-brown, deeply grooved, and broken into irregular plates. The pale green twigs are slightly aromatic. The hard, pale red-brown wood usually is not separated from that of sweet birch commercially. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Soort sier- en productieboom, inheems in het noordoostelijke deel van Noord-Amerika. Het is een van de grootste berken; hij kan 30 meter hoog worden en groeit op koele, vochtige rivieroevers en op drogere gronden tot een hoogte van 1950 meter. Op de takken en jonge stammen bestaat de zilverachtig gele schors uit flinterdunne krullen. Op oude boomstammen is de schors roodbruin, diep gegroefd en verdeeld in onregelmatige lagen. De lichtgroene twijgen zijn licht geurend. Het harde, bleke roodbruine hout wordt in de handel meestal niet onderscheiden van het hout van de suikerberk. |
