Birch Saplings

The common Birch (Betula Pubescens) has a distinctive silver/white bark which provides excellent winter interest. Our Birch Saplings are fast growing trees and can therefore become quite large in a relatively short space of time. Leaves are oval with a pointed tip and finely serrated edges that turn yellow in autumn. The Birch is a native tree to Ireland and so it can be grown on damp sites. Our Birch Saplings are sold in bundles of 25 and they are supplied at 2-3 foot (bare rooted).

​We have a wide range of other native saplings including Oak, Mountain Ash and Alder. Each year we grow many birch saplings in our nursery. We also partner with other premium Irish Nurseries so we can source different and unusual plants for our customers. All of this enables us to provide you with top quality plants. All of our saplings can be purchased online or at our nursery. They are available for collection or delivery throughout Ireland. Remember, a well chosen and well prepared spot will result in healthier trees. Our experienced Doonwood Nurseries team can advise you on the best options for your particular situation so as to ensure you get the best results and we are always happy to help.
