Green Beech Hedging 100–120cm Bare Root Taller Bare Root Plants for Instant Impact & Year-Round Structure Green Beech (Fagus sylvatica) is one of the UK’s most popular native hedging choices, known for its rich green summer foliage and coppery winter leaves. Supplied here at 100–120cm tall, these bare root plants offer a faster route to an established hedge while still providing great value for larger runs. Though technically deciduous, Green Beech retains many of its crisp, brown leaves throughout the colder months, creating a hedge that provides privacy even in winter. In spring, fresh green leaves burst through, creating a lively seasonal shift.
