Beech
20 years online - still growing strong
Beech (Fagus sylvatica) is a semi-evergreen hedge, retaining its coppery autumn leaves for winter interest. With fresh green foliage in spring, it forms a dense, elegant boundary. Beech thrives in well-drained soils and responds well to pruning, making it a superb formal hedge. It offers strong wind resistance and provides shelter for wildlife. Prune in late summer to maintain its structure and promote vibrant, healthy growth.
