Hey there,
Have an established birch on one side of my front yard and I would like to plant a matching one on the other side. However I'm having problems figuring out exactly which cultivar the existing one is. From my research online I've narrowed it down to either BETULA pendula 'Gracilis' or BETULA pendula 'Laciniata' but can't figure out how to differentiate between them. (There is a lot of discussion online about confusion with BETULA pendula 'Dalecarlica' but I'm pretty sure it isn't that one). Photos can be found here: http://aranje.ca/Birch (Yes, I know - it had Birch Leaf Minor last year - that is now being managed)
Thanks,
