If you like silver birch try to get a multi-stemmed one. A cheap way of achieving this is to take 3 whips and plant them as a bunch, with the whips splayed out , of course.
This will be a stunner and try to use it on its own. Don't crowd it out, as you will lose the effect.

I would choose rowan or sorbus too and think they are good in clay too
