While the cherry birch is usually successful in the cold forest humidity, it requires high maintenance when used during field treatment. Individuals who want to try this tree should plant it in an area that has a cold, damp soil. However, the tree is not doing well in the shadow - instead of growing its leaves properly, it requires a full partial sun. To achieve this, individuals can try these trees on the north or east side of the house, as this will allow the best chance of providing the afternoon shadow.
As soon as the tree becomes set, individuals should take steps to maintain it by providing sufficient water, mulch and fertilizer. Young trees generally require northern lessons of watering once a week to provide them with the right humidity. Mulch made of chips or leaf compost can help keep the roots of cherry birch cold and damp soil. While the fertilizerIvo applied at the end of spring or early autumn can help solve soil problems, if the tree appears to be stressed, adding nutrients to the soil generally will not correct the problem. Instead, individuals should only apply fertilizer if there is a real imbalance or lack of nutrients in the soil.
