About Hornbeam Hedging

Known to be a semi-evergreen species, Hornbeam loves to cling onto its leaves throughout Winter, as they turn into deep autumnal shades. It will also produce green catkins near the end of Spring, and all the way through to Autumn, where they then turn into fruits (something wildlife loves!).̴Ì?

Instant Impact Hornbeam hedging is the perfect formal feature for any garden and can look stunning when placed amongst other native hedges- or you can always leave it on its own to bloom and blossom.
