A beautiful ornamental tree with an upright narrow habit and delicate, soft-green, serrate leaves growing on slender branches. This tree is attractive in every season with the soft leaves aging to yellow in autumn, before falling in winter to expose beautiful white textured bark, and in spring the tree is adorned with small, dangling, brown catkins of seeds. Silver Birch is an excellent feature tree, it is a great choice for avenue planting, streetscapes, and as dappled light shade trees.
