Birches are versatile trees. The sap, bark, leaves, wood, twigs, and roots are used for food, construction materials, medicinal treatments, lubricants, and other practical applications.
The fruit is a small samara, although the wings may be obscure in some species. A samara is sometimes called a key and is often referred to as a helicopter or whirligig or a polynose.
