Extra Heavy Standards Girth 12/14 Pleached Carpinus Betulus 180cm Stem - Frame 120cm (High) x 180cm (Width): Commonly known and often referred to as hornbeam, with its grey/green smooth bark and fluted trunk is a wonderful, stately tree. Glossy mid-green foliage deeply ribbed and turning yellow and brown autumn. Green catkins appear from late spring followed by clusters of winged fruit. Carpinus Betulus is a very useful tree, it makes a good semi evergreen hedge, in sheltered spots it will hold on to crisp brown foliage virtually all winter and once spring and the warmer temperatures arrive new foliage can give complete coverage within a matter of days.
Unfortunately the height of these plants makes it impossible for us to deliver them by courier and can only be delivered in one of our vehicles so we cannot deliver nationwide. As a rough guide we deliver to all destinations south of our nursery in the Cotswolds and upto approximately Manchester and Leeds if heading north. The website will not take your order if you are outside of one of our delivery postcodes, this will be confirmed in the checkout and basket area when postcode is entered.
We may be able to deliver outside of one of our regular areas but by arrangement only.
