Siberian or Dwarf Birch? Anyone?

[TreeKiller64]

Hey,
I am wondering if anyone has worked with Siberian Birch? Betula nana?
Its finally time to re-plant a tree I bought years ago (about 5) and made it into a raft. It has grown
well and has 5 distinct tree in the planting. But now I'm mulling over the idea of splitting the group up and having individual trees.
My question is there anyone who may have experience on this variety? I'm Birch ignorant?
Thanks,,
KJ

I'll try for one tomorrow,,
It's really over-grown,, I haven't pruned it since I started it 2+ years ago.
I wanted to allow the tree time to root... well,,, it has
and with a vengeance.
So I have a-bit of work ahead. I'll take on and you tell what ya think I should do
till then..
