Description
These bare root standard Hornbeam trees create a striking addition to a garden and can be a highly effective way to add a larger feature to the garden.
These standard hornbeam trees are bare rooted, that is to say that they have been grown in the field and are supplied without any soil around the roots. They will, therefore, need to be planted as soon as possible after purchasing and can only be supplied during the colder months of the year. They are all 10ft (300cm) in height.
Due to the size of these plants, we will need to quote for delivery on an individual basis. Please telephone us to discuss delivery of your plants. Plants can, of course, be collected from our nursery free of charge.
Hornbeam is a very traditional form of trees and is native to the UK. The first green leaves of the year are synonymous with the arrival of spring and the leaves will remain green until the autumn when they will turn a golden-copper brown colour. Hornbeam, unlike many of its deciduous competitors, will retain its dead leaves on the hedge for most of the winter and they will only be pushed off by new growth the following spring. This helps a hornbeam hedge to give an added level of visual privacy all year round.
Hornbeam are much more tolerant of wet and heavy soils than beech but if you are planting during the drier months of the year, it is important to water them properly during their first year after planting. This is best done using leaky hose which is cheap, easy to install and highly effective. See our Accessories page for more details.
