The Plant
Botanical Family: Betulaceae
Plant part: Bud
Origin: France
The Silver Birch is unassuming in size, but its cracked white bark is unmistakable. Its young hanging branches bear small warts. Its leaves are triangular, hairless, with marked teeth at the tip of the secondary veins. The flowers are grouped in catkins, but separate, the males in thin hanging catkins, the females in catkins initially upright, then hanging at fruit maturity.
The Silver Birch favors light siliceous soils, therefore rather acidic, even very poor, thanks to a mycorrhizal symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria of the Frankia genus. Craving light, it is a pioneer on degraded lands or on burnt lands.
With an elegant bearing with its silver-white bark and light branches, it rather inspires femininity.
Everything is brilliance and delicacy, wood and bark are handled with flexibility.
The purifying qualities of its sap have long been recognized and it is often associated with rites or purifying practices such as the Imbolc festival (February 1st in Ireland).
