FAQs

• Is Green Beech suitable for privacy hedging? Yes, its dense foliage provides privacy and seasonal colour.
• How does Fagus sylvatica compare to hornbeam? Both are hardy; beech is less tolerant of wet soils than hornbeam but offers brighter leaf colour.
• How many plants do I need per metre? For a thick hedge, use 5 per metre double row; otherwise, 3 per metre single row.
• Will these plants succeed in heavy clay? Green Beech dislikes persistently wet or clay-rich soils; improve drainage if necessary.
