This morning I woke up, just like many of us in the area, to find that
during the night some.......person......Has laid waste to about 10 - 15
gardens in our area....
Trees ahev been snipped at and even one hedge now has a huge hole in it....

Time to bring back the birch :(

My question is....Will the plant survive this?

When we had the house pointed up, we had to chop our wisteria off at
almost ground level. It is now, after 4 years or so right back where it
was before it was chopped.
I would neaten up any 'tears' in the stem by cutting it off clean, just
give it TLC and keep your fingers crossed.
