Overview
The Royal Frost birch (Betula "Royal Frost") bears reddened leaves that strikingly contrast the peeling white bark and grows pest- and disease-free. Appreciating cool summers, it grows most successfully in moist, well-draining soils in full sun or in the partial shade of an open woodland in U.S. Department of Agriculture hardiness zones 3 through 6.
