Betula lenta, commonly known as Sweet Birch or Black Birch, is a deciduous tree native to eastern North America. It is known for its aromatic bark and leaves, which have a wintergreen scent. The tree can grow up to 25 meters tall and is often found in temperate forests. It has a dormancy period during the winter months.
Sweet Birch prefers moderate temperatures and should be planted in an area where it can receive direct bright light for at least six hours a day. It thrives in environments with moderate humidity and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. The tree is relatively hardy and can tolerate a range of conditions but prefers temperate climates.
