Carpinus betulus ‘Fastigiata’, commonly known as the Fastigiate Hornbeam, is a deciduous tree prized for its upright, columnar growth habit. With dense, dark green foliage that turns golden yellow in autumn, this cultivar of the European Hornbeam is ideal for formal landscapes, avenues, and screening. It thrives in well-drained soils and is highly tolerant of pruning, making it suitable for hedging. Its smooth gray bark and distinctive fluted trunk add year-round interest. Hardy and adaptable, it withstands urban pollution and a variety of soil conditions, making it a popular choice for structured garden designs and city planting. |
