Fagus sylvatica - Common Beech Bare Root

Fagus sylvatica, or common beech, is a classic hedge shrub with elegant appeal. Its bright green foliage in spring and summer shifts to orange, red, and brown hues in autumn. Notably, it often retains dry leaves on its branches during winter, providing privacy and shelter. It creates a dense, orderly hedge that tolerates pruning well for a neat appearance. Supplied as bare root, it should be planted from October to April outside of frost periods, preferring well-drained, humus-rich soil in full sun or partial shade.
