Dawyck purple beech is a narrow and upright branching columnar tree with dark purple leaves. Attractive if planted as a tall hedgerow. Serrated leaves emerge and remain dark purple until transforming to a spectacular copper foliage in autumn. Smooth barked, upright silvery-grey branches provides a striking winter interest. Very densely branched and tall, up to 50 ft. and 10 ft. wide, requires almost no pruning to maintain its form. Zone 4-9.
A widely adapted, important timber tree, with strong, dense wood, and smooth bark. Small, wavy leaves and drooping catkins. Small triangular shaped, thin shelled nuts are good tasting to wildlife and humans yet toxic in large amounts. European Beech trees are long-lived and can become very large, up to 80-150 ft. at old age. Makes a beautiful, tall specimen or shade tree with great fall foliage. May hold on to autumn leaves and drop instead in spring, adding winter interest. Sun or shade tolerant. Grows in many types of soils but prefers moist and well-drained conditions. Zone 4-7.
A columnar reddish-purple leaved beech. Slow growth habit and narrow form makes it ideal for smaller residential landscapes while also a striking vertical accent or specimen in most any setting, growing to 40 ft. by only 5 ft. wide. New leaves are vivid pink and red then darkening to a deep burgundy. The leaves of Red Obelisk Beech may even appear curly or wavy. Brilliant fall color, papery copper leaves that remain on the branches and smooth silver bark adds attractive winter interest. Zone 4-7.
