The ikariae ssp ikariae was divided and grown here for decades.

Isnβt this tree beautiful? It is in Wisleyβs Arboretum and is a Betula pendula Youngii. I really like the patterns of the bare branches.
Yesterdayβs sunshine was definitely mood enhancing.
A larger tree or something may have fallen onto it in the past.

I need to look at those those growing here.
I have wondered about that upward flowering in other varieties. If not genetic then local climate or soil perhaps.
