Why Dura Heat® River Birch Trees?
A beautiful, fast-growing shade tree that thrives from North to South, the Dura Heat® River Birch is one-of-a-kind. This lovely tree grows in cold areas and hot and humid conditions, a span that includes frigid Maine and Minnesota all the way down to hot and humid Florida and Texas.
Plus, River Birches tolerate soggy conditions where other trees won’t grow. If you’re trying to landscape a low-lying area that floods regularly, or you have heavy clay soil, this tree is exactly what you need. Its dense root system tolerates dense, wet soil, and even regular flooding and standing water.
Its fast growth means your landscape fills in quickly. These trees can grow up to three feet each year, so they reach mature heights much faster than other landscape trees. They're also fairly compact and can be planted as a specimen in an urban yard, where they tolerate pollutants with ease.

Tree arrived in great shape, great quality. We planted it and has been growing great ever since.
Nice tree
Arrived dormant. Planted and it woke up and leafed out great. Looking very good at this point!

Tree came in taller than expected
River Birch Delivered
The tree was delivered well packaged and in great condition. Ordered size was 5-6 feet, we were please that it 69" above the root ball. Based on this experience FastGrowingTrees will be our first look for future orders.
Dura Heat Birch
This tree came in great condition and already leaved out! Didn't get it planted for a couple days due to some thunderstorms. Nothing severe but it did get watered good with the rain! After about a week in the ground now it is looking great.
