Opis:
Yellow or Golden Birch (Betula alleghaniensis) gets its name from its striking golden bark. Here in Appalachian Mountains it is considered a higher elevation 'persistent successional species). I compare the bark of this tree to that of Sweet or Black Birch or Sweet Birch (Betula lenta). I show a fallen leaf and describe its features as both species have virtually identical leaves. I describe the amazing wintergreen scent if you break or scratch bark of both tree species. I point out how a very nice tea can be made from twigs. I describe the commercial as well as ecological role of this tree, locally in Appalachians as well as in the north of USA and Canada. Uses by indigenous peoples is described as well. The Yellow-bellied Sap Sucker is also mentioned as to how if targets Yellow Birch for its sap value.
