I arrived home in France today to see my beloved Silver Birch, I have
about a dozen but 2 were very damaged with the weight of snow on their
branches. *They are drooping, like a willow, will they recover or will
I need to prune, severely in Spring?

How tall are they Judith? *Mine must be older than yours, and they are Tall!


The one in a garden behind out house is 25-30 metres tall. It's 40 years old.
