Common Beech Tree (2m)
Fagus sylvatica
Dispatched from our expert growing partner and delivered within 7 days.
The Beech or "Mother of the Woods" is certainly the Queen of the forest and features heavily in Celtic folklore.
The Celts associated the Beech tree with wisdom and learning. It was also a symbol of success and in the Victorian Language of Flowers, Beech Tree means prosperity.
The Beech Tree gift is a versatile tree and is great for hedging. It is an attractive tree with a slender trunk featuring grey-silver-coloured bark. The hair-fringed leaves are a dark green colour which turns into a vibrant copper in the autumn.
The Beech is a deciduous tree.
