Green Beech, Fagus sylvatica, is one of the finest traditional hedging trees for creating an attractive, long-lasting garden boundary. Supplied as an impressive XL approximately 6ft tall established tree in a substantial 5/7.5 litre pot, these are ideal for instant hedging, providing immediate height, structure and considerably faster results than starting with smaller young plants.
Green Beech produces fresh green foliage through spring and summer before developing beautiful golden, copper and bronze autumn shades. When regularly trimmed as a hedge, much of the dry copper-brown foliage can remain attached through winter, providing additional screening before fresh green growth emerges again in spring.
At approximately 6ft tall when supplied, these substantial established trees are an excellent choice for creating tall boundaries, privacy screening, traditional hedging and mature-looking garden divisions. Plant at approximately 1–2 trees per metre, depending on the density and speed of coverage required.

Please note: Green Beech is deciduous, although established clipped hedges commonly retain a proportion of their dried copper-brown leaves through winter. Plants purchased during the dormant season may therefore arrive with brown foliage, reduced foliage or completely bare depending on seasonal conditions. Height, branching, shape and fullness will naturally vary between individual trees. Plants are carefully selected before dispatch to provide strong, established XL hedging trees ready to create immediate height and impact.
