English name Chinese red birch. If I translate the Swedish name it will be Copper birch. Seem to fit I think. :)  This one grows in the Arboretum we have in my city. I think they have 13 different kind of birch. Think I will have to ID them.

  3. I do not know this name (and not even this tree, we only have a "green birch, a couple of species, as I'm sure also you have) But this is very beautiful tree. And the colors are fantastic.

  5. What a pretty tree. I don't think I've ever seen one before. We have white birch here which are also beautiful.
