Betula Magical Globe is an enchanting deciduous shrub known for its compact, rounded shape and striking foliage that brings a mystical charm to any garden. Originating from the birch family (Betulaceae), this small, ornamental cultivar is admired for its unique, globe-like form, which maintains a naturally dense, symmetrical shape without the need for extensive pruning. Typically reaching heights of 1.2 to 1.5 metres, the Betula Magical Globe makes an ideal choice for gardens where space is limited, as it stays small and contained, offering year-round interest.
One of the most captivating aspects of the Betula Magical Globe is its silvery-white bark, a signature trait inherited from its birch lineage. As the plant matures, the bark naturally peels to reveal fresh layers, adding texture and colour variations that stand out beautifully, particularly in winter when the tree is bare. During spring and summer, the Betula Magical Globe produces vibrant, delicate green leaves that flutter in the wind, casting dappled light around it and bringing a lively feel to the space.
Low-maintenance and hardy, the Betula Magical Globe is suitable for a variety of climates and soil conditions. It thrives in well-drained, moderately fertile soils and prefers full sun to partial shade, making it a versatile choice for many garden styles. Its resilience against pests and diseases makes it ideal for gardeners seeking a long-lasting, low-effort plant that brings consistent beauty throughout the seasons.
Thanks to its compact shape and eye-catching bark, the Betula Magical Globe is often used as a focal point in small gardens, courtyards, or even larger pots on patios. Whether standing alone or paired with other plants, its whimsical appearance evokes a sense of wonder, bringing an element of natural magic to any outdoor setting.

About Us
During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
