Carpinus betulus (Hornbeam) is excellent as a specimen tree and commonly used for hedging. Suitable with any reasonable well drained soil in sun or moderate shade.

Hornbeam retains brown foliage in winter-- especially if pruned in late summer. This makes it an excellent windbreak and screen. So much so that it used to be used in mazes.

Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) hedges are a wildlife haven. The fruit provide autumn food for wildlife. Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) hedges provide food for moth caterpillars including the Small White Wave-- Pale November -- Nut Tree Tussock-- and Copper Underwing. Hawfinches eat the seed in autumn and winter. Hares-- rabbits and field mice love the leaf shoots and foliage. Each tree supports around 28 species of wildlife.
A very attractive deciduous plant with attractive autumn colouring.
