Planting & Care

A fast-growing native hedge that holds its coppery autumn leaves through winter, providing year-round screening.
Shimmering golden-green leaves brighten through summer before turning a rich copper in autumn.
A robust hedge, easily maintained at any height between 1-5m.
Ideal as a windbreak, thriving in most soils except heavy clay or exposed windy areas.
Proud recipient of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.

Species: Beech
Features: Native to UK, stunning autumn colour
Flower Colour: Small, inconspicuous green flowers in spring.
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Habit: Bushy, ideal for hedging.
Eventual Spread: 2-3m unless pruned
Hardiness: H6 - Fully hardy in all of the UK.
Growth Rate: Fast, expect 30-60cm of growth per year.

Planting Time: Can be planted year-round.
Soil: Prefers any well-drained, fertile soil. Avoid heavy clay. Improve drainage in heavy or sandy soils by mixing in perlite or horticultural grit.
Pruning: Prune established hedges in late summer (August is ideal). A light tidy-up can be done in June if needed.
Watering: Water well when newly planted and during dry spells for the first year.
Feeding: Generally not required as it gets nutrients from the soil.
Pests & Diseases: Good resistance, but look out for aphids and beech bark scale. May be affected by coral spot.
