Silver Birch (Betula pendula)
Uses
Silver birch is still coppiced for besoms and brushwood horse jumps, and its wood used for plywood. Our ancestors used to tap birch trees and extract their sap, which is fragrant and sweet, and you can find recipes for birch sap wine. They also used its young leaves as a treatment for urinary infections, as they're both antiseptic and diuretic. Silver birch bark used as a kind of parchment lasts for many years - back to the Mesolithic - as it has fungicidal properties.
The Plants We Sell
Like all the native trees we sell, our Silver birch are grown in the UK from UK origin seed. We're currently selling 60-90cm 2 year old plants in multiples of 5.
Suppliers: RV Roger, British Hardwood Trees.
Please note that standard sizes relate to tree girths in cm. See our planting and size guide for details and tips on planting trees.
Our Betula pendula trees are all bare root, and are consequently available for delivery from November until March (please ask if you are interested in pot grown plants). During the lifting season there may be up to a month's delay between placing the order and dispatching, due to weather conditions or pressure of orders, which are dealt with in date sequence. Orders placed for Silver Birch between March and October are confirmed for dispatch from November.
Have a look at our videos on what to do when your plants arrive and how to plant a bare root tree. Please ask about larger trees; we can often supply them but will need to quote on an individual basis as carriage varies so much.Shipping Notes
