Betula schmidtii, the iron birch or Schmidt's birch, is a species of flowering plant in the family Betulaceae.[3][4] It is native to Manchuria, Korea, Primorsky Krai of the Russian Far East, and Japan.[2] A tree reaching 30 m (100 ft) with nearly black bark, its wood is so dense that it does not float, and is used where a tough, durable material is desired.[5]
