The album was short-listed for the 2006 Australian Music Prize. It peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard New Age Albums chart.[4]
Reception
Steve Hochman of the Los Angeles Times described it as "hypnotic, atmospheric",[5] while AllMusic critic Thom Jurek praised the album, saying, "Gerrard's fans will find this irresistible, despite its lack of drama, and ambient music fans will no doubt appreciate its various textures, dimensions, and closely knit sonics. Yes, it is beautiful, and spiritual, and moving in places, but it is secretive, mysterious, and engaging on the aural level as a text as well.[1]

The Silver Tree (в переводе с англ. — «Серебряное дерево») — второй сольный альбом австралийской певицы Лизы Джеррард и первый её диск, вышедший после окончания многолетнего контракта с лейблом 4AD. Издан 20 ноября 2006 года австралийским подразделением EMI Rubber Records, тогда же альбом стал доступен для скачивания на iTunes и начал продаваться через официальный сайт певицы. В 2007 году был перевыпущен по лицензии в ряде стран, некоторые переиздания содержат бонус-треки. Ограниченное французское издание содержит DVD с сокращённой версией документального фильма о Лизе «Sanctuary». В Германии лейбл Subway также выпустил альбом на двойном виниле. На песню «Come Tenderness» британский режиссёр Клив Коллиер снял видеоклип.Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
