What is a Betula neoalaskana? The Betula neoalaskana, or Alaska paper birch, is a tree that can be found in the wild in Alaska and Northern Canada.

This tree reaches heights of around 60-70 feet, with a trunk diameter of up to 2 feet. The Betula neoalaskana has characteristic white bark that shreds in long strips, which inspired its other common name: the white birch.

This tree grows best in cold climates near wetlands, where it provides important food and habitat for animals.

The Betula neoalaskana is a beautiful sight to see in the wild, and offers many benefits for the environment.
