| | | Common Beech (Fagus sylvatica) The majestic Beech has been here since before we were an island - beech pollen in Hampshire has been dated back to 6000 BC. It is an antisocial tree, growing best among its own - hilltop beech groves are one of the most beautiful landscape features of Southern chalk downlands. It is adaptable, growing in most well drained soils and tolerant of shade, but unlike the visually similar Hornbeam doesn't like the wet.
Beech wood has been coppiced and pollarded since the Iron Ages (at least !) for fuel wood; seasoned wood will make for a lovely bright fire. In the 18th century tall straight limbed beech trees were grown for Windsor chair legs. Beech mast - produced irregularly - is a tremendous boon for all sorts of wildlife, and the nuts used to be pressed into oil. Beech leaves were both used for mattresses and mixed with gin to make an alcoholic drink, beech-leaf noyau. According to folklore the Beech is a benevolent tree; the lost traveller seeking shelter beneath its boughs will be safe. We include Beech in our mixed native woodland collections.
Provenance certificates are available on request for smaller size Beech trees, which are from the Southwest of England.
