Product Description

10 Green Beech / Fagus Sylvatica Plants 4-5ft

Bare-Rooted 120-150cm

 

These are  bare rooted plants which can be planted from October until April and will be dispatched as soon as the weather turns cold and they become dormant.The dispatch date depends on the Autumn temperature and varies from year to year.

 

Beech is most commonly available as the species with bright green leaves in spring that darken towards summer before turning copper in the autumn, they then turn brown over winter if they are retained which only happens when used as hedging, large tree forms lose most or all of the leaves in the winter.

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 its leaves in Autumn.

    hedging

    Posted by D A Wright on 18th Nov 2020

    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

    Posted by Sheila on 3rd Apr 2018

    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!
