This beech hedging plant is a favourite of many. It's not surprising as it is so well behaved. It only needs trimming once in late summer/ early autumn and is a quick grower.
Even though it is supposedly deciduous, it will hold its beautiful copper coloured leaves through until spring. The new fresh green leaves make the old copper ones fall off in spring.
It will grow anywhere except the shadiest and wettest sites. I've never propagated beech before but you can buy both seedlings and various height saplings very cheaply.
