- Variety Specifications
- Planting & Care
- A standout native tree, its striking silver-white bark and elegant, drooping branches enhance any garden.
- The bark peels away like paper as it ages, revealing dark fissures that give each tree unique character.
- A haven for wildlife, supporting over 300 insect species, moths, fungi, and providing nesting sites for birds like woodpeckers.
- Its bright green, serrated leaves form a light canopy, ideal for underplanting, before turning a vibrant golden yellow in autumn.
- In April and May, yellow and green catkins appear, with seeds that attract birds such as siskins, greenfinches, and redpolls.
- Improves soil quality by returning nutrients through its fallen leaves.
- In Celtic tradition, the silver birch symbolises renewal and new beginnings.
- Our trees are 18-36 months old and expertly pruned before shipping to encourage robust, bushy growth.
