The leaves of the silver birch are alternate, simple, and doubly serrated. They are usually triangular or ovate in shape, with a pointed apex. The leaf color is initially bright green, turning yellow in autumn before they eventually fall off.

These seeds are dispersed by wind, aiding in the birch's reproductive cycle.
