Some mushroom species form what is called a symbiotic relationship with silver birch, which means that the fungus and the tree benefit from their association. One such mushroom is the traditional muciat of fairy tales, known as Fly Agaric, with a bright red cap and white spots. Through its connection with the roots of the tree, the flying agarika of silver birch helps to occupy soil nutrients.

In return, the silver Birch provides sugars for the sponge.

Celtic mythology uses silver birch to symbolize the process to become new and clean. Traditionally, in the New Year, birchs were created into volumes and used to defeat and avoidGhosts belonging to the old year. Birch twigs are still connected together to create traditional brooms or plumes today. There are also natural twigs that can sometimes occur in the branches of silver birch, reminiscent of large nests. These are referred to as witches' broom, but are caused by a fungus that distorts the growth of the tree.
