Betula utilis Wakehurst Place Chocolate
Wakehurst Place Chocolate Birch Tree is named because its shiny brown bark, which resembles plain chocolate in colour. Relatively unknown, this Himalayan Birch tree would add immediate interest in any garden. This is a fast-growing tree and will do well in most soil and shade conditions.

This tree is supplied at a height of between 150 and 200cm in a 7- 12L container for year round planting and better results than from either bare-root or root-balled stock.

Expect a final height of 20m (66ft 8in).

Ornamental Tree Roots In The Shade e.g. Behind A Fence
It is more important that that foliage (posh term for leaves) receives the sunlight than the roots. So if the canopy of your ornamental tree can sunbathe but the bottom of your tree thinks there has been a nuclear winter then that is ok. You might want to ensure you have good drainage as water and no sun is the start of algae and other such issues.

Do I Need To Stake My Ornamental Tree?
Our article on Tree Staking should help guide you.

Planting In The Corner Of A Garden
Air and light is reduced in this location which could promote fungus and bacterial issues. If the corner is of the house and a fence then you also have leeching issues to contend with from cement and wood preservatives. Also when it rains, that area would experience higher water levels so we advise against it unless the plant is very hardy. 

Water Logged Conditions
Willow, Alder, Birch and Poplar may help lower the water level so long as you do not have permanent standing water e.g. your local diving and sailing club meets on your lawn.
