Carpinus Betulus Fastigiata Box Ec Columnar Cylinder
Reaching a height of about 40 to 60 feet, European Hornbeam features a narrow and upright growth habit with a dense canopy of serrated, dark green leaves. The foliage turns a beautiful yellow-orange in the fall, adding a touch of seasonal interest. In spring, it produces inconspicuous flowers, and in fall, small winged nutlets develop. European Hornbeam thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil. Its columnar form and compact growth make it a favored choice for creating vertical accents, hedges, and screens. Its textured leaves, tolerance for pruning, and adaptability to urban environments contribute to its popularity as an elegant and versatile tree that adds structure and beauty to outdoor spaces.
