Yellow birch

Its golden bark recalls the richness of the ecosystems where it grows. Yellow birch was considered a purifier by indigenous peoples who used it to treat blood infections. It is a very social tree that is rarely found alone. A family member will never be very far away, which is why they are often associated with the family.

Easy to recognize thanks to its bark, the yellow birch is the emblematic tree of Quebec. It grows exclusively in southern Quebec, Ontario and in a few American states. The yellow birch forests are very magical. When the sun comes in, their bark lights up and shines like the stars. It is not uncommon to observe yellow birches with a strange posture, often even contorted in order to receive the few rays of sunlight that pierce the canopy.

This tree represents purity and elegance.
