Fagus Sylvatica

Common Beech

These splendid trees are celebrated for lush green serrated leaves, forming an impenetrable screen that bestows privacy, security, and an effective shield against noise and wind upon your garden.

Carpinus Betulus also known as Hornbeam is a tradtional tree that is under valued. It is a natural beauty, they are dense well branched conical crowns that as they mature the structure rounds. They are slow growing. In spring the foliage is a sudden burst of bright green, the leaf itself is serrated and tapers to a point. In autumn they change to a soft yellow before the golden brown we often see. The tree holds the brown coppery leaves for most of the winter. Giving an almost evegreen look, before the drop off. The greyish brown bark is a lovely smooth trunk. Making it ideal for turning into standard or pleahed trees as well. Carpinus can reach between 15/25m. 

Carpinus is an excellent choice for inviting wildlife into the garden, they are an excellent source for moths and catrpillars, the green catkins develop into fruits that birds eat. 

Hornbeam are resliant trees that once estbalished can tolerate poor soils, such as clay and chalk. In sun or partial shade. 

The Carpinus B. Pleached Standard is an exquisite addition to any garden or landscape, celebrated for its graceful, formal appearance. This topiary is meticulously shaped to form a refined, pleached standard, where the foliage is expertly trained to create a structured, elegant screen. This distinctive form adds a sophisticated touch to your outdoor space, making it a striking focal point.

Where Should I Place My Carpinus B. Pleached Standard?

The Carpinus B. Pleached Standard thrives in a range of conditions but performs best in a location with partial shade to full sun. It should be planted in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil to avoid waterlogging, which can adversely affect the roots. Soil that retains moisture effectively is ideal and employing a soaker hose can help maintain consistent moisture levels, especially during dry spells.

Growth and Pruning

The Carpinus B. Pleached Standard grows at a moderate rate, allowing it to maintain its elegant form with careful and regular pruning. This topiary is typically grown on a standard trunk, providing a height of around 150 cm with a width of 80 cm. Regular pruning is essential to preserve its formal, pleached shape and support healthy growth. Trim by removing any weak, dead, or damaged branches, and clear away debris at the base. Use sharp shears to maintain the precise, geometric lines of the topiary. A thorough trim, generally performed in late winter or early spring, combined with periodic touch-ups throughout the growing season, will keep your Carpinus B. Pleached Standard in optimal condition.
