SMOOTH ALDER

Smooth Alder, a generous grower and a beauty, loves to form thickets in moist to wet soils. Male catkins and female flowers are among the first to bloom in spring. Female flowers form cones bearing seeds to feed birds. An excellent wildlife supporter, Alnus serrulata can host 232 species of butterflies and moths in our area.
