Online Catalogue | Hornbeam Hedging (Carpinus betulus)
Click here for a chart of species characteristics to help you chooseThe Hornbeam hedging plant is a very popular native species with very similar characteristics to Beech - in that it retains many of its leaves in winter (not quite as good as Beech) but they go coppery coloured (a bit less coppery than Beech - more of a brown/grey) - but this species has more deeply veined and pointed leaves and is very well suited to wetter soils. It's a popular species to add in to native mixed hedging to give it some semi-evergreen quality and also very good as a single species hedge in a garden setting.Pot grown and cell grown Hornbeam plants are available all year round - grown on our own nurseries. We also have this species as a bare root plant, available from November to early April (sometimes late March). Don't forget to order RootGrow and/or Bonemeal.
