Product details

he Fastigiate Beech – a rather ugly name for a rather beautiful tree!

Originating in Dawyck Scotland in the mid 1800s this architectural beauty won the Award of Garden Merit in 2002.

There are some wonderful specimens planted by some of the university colleges in Cambridge.

This medium to large tree has a columnar habit and is a very good choice for both wide verges and specimen plantings in parks.

Even when mature it is seldom more than 3m wide.

Beech thrives just about anywhere other than exposed and coastal locations.

As it is shallow rooted under planting is not recommended.

Mature height: 12-17m

Mature spread: 4-6m
