HORNBEAM TREE - CARPINUS BETULUS
The Common Hornbeam is a classic native hedgerow plant which retains its russet coloured leaves through most of the winter. Often used in place of Beech, especially on heavy soils.
Our Hornbeam trees are English grown from genuine English origin (provenance) stock grown naturally in fertile English soil. Because our Hornbeam trees are 100% English provenance and English grown, they make an excellent choice for any woodland or landscape planting scheme. If you are including native species, we think it is easy to be misled. Some suppliers use the word “native” to describe their trees but this does not necessarily mean that they are English grown or of English origin. Many are imported from continental Europe. As growers with over 40 years of growing experience we are happy to pass on our knowledge and advice. Don’t compromise on quality. When you want the best choose quality English grown, English origin Hornbeam from Botanica.
Bare Root Hornbeam trees are only available during the season November to March. Precise dates will be notified each year.
