Silver Birch is charming in a native hedge, intricate stems & twigs of this lovely tree make it perfect to form a dense screen in summer when covered in leaves or when leafless in winter. The brown catkins hang down in late spring to early summer to add more interest & the silver to white coloured bark is why the tree is famous.
