Description:
It also takes very well to being grown as a hedging plant producing superb hedges that can be used in formal or informal settings. Beech hedges make effective windbreaks and sort of span the evergreen / deciduous boundary as whereas they are deciduous, they retain the dead leaves on the branches through the winter until they are pushed off by new shoots in the spring time. They are not completely bare and twiggy therefore when grown as a hedge.
Beech can be planted as a single specimen tree which will grow to a maximum height of 30 metres but it will shed it's leaves in Autumn.

hedging
Having purchased this hedging from yourselves I have to congratulate you on the delivery after dispatch of only a couple of days it was well packed. as for the plants themselves they look in good condition but as they are dormant until they start to put on some growth I have to reserve judgement but it looks as if everything should be OK.

Great quality beech hedging
Really pleased with the beech hedging - good height, strong roots, reasonable price, just what I wanted. Swift dispatch in a neat manageable package. I'll tell you next year if they do the business, but looking good already!
