Green Beech - Fagus sylvatica
Green Beech is a large, native, deciduous tree that makes a great specimen particularly in a woodland or parkland setting.
Its mid-green leaves turn a golden russet brown in the autumn, setting off its smooth grey bark to perfection. The Whomping Willow in The Prisoner of Azkaban was actually the Queen beech, an old tree in Frithsden Beeches, Hetfordshire.
Green Beech is tolerant of most soil types - except wet ground but it grows best where the drainage is good. To 25m
