'Birch Mountain' - This unusual mutation features leaves that are marbled with irregular patterns of white variegation. It was discovered by Glastonbury, CT by Mark Sutcliffe recently and has not entered production yet. At best, it is probably a novelty for collectors.

Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Prefers moist, acidic, loamy soils. Tolerates dry, sandy soils. Large taproot makes transplanting of established trees difficult. If root suckers are not removed, tree will spread and begin to take on the appearance of a large multi-stemmed shrub.
