The Paper Birch, slender and elegant, with its intensely
white bark, is visible even in the dark of night. The
tough outer wrapping of the tree is the bark from which
American Indians fashioned their strong, lightweight
bark canoes. These Native Americans, as well as early
colonists and European herbalists, all agreed that birch
leaves were therapeutic and all prescribed them for
many disorders. The leaves and twigs of some birches
boast a spicy aroma and are used to make scented oil.
Because of their singular beauty, they have been
designated National Memorial Trees for Mothers and as
such were planted on the Capitol grounds in
Washington, DC.
