Tree with papery bark

Ross

I believe the answer is:

birch

'tree with papery bark' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for birch that I've seen before include "Type of tree" , "Flogging rod" , "Hardy tree" , "Tree with grey or white bark" , "to beat the rest?" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
