Deeply cut, long narrow leaves give a delicate appearance to this fern-leaf beech. The spreading habit makes it a particularly nice ornamental tree.
One of the most effective of large ornamental trees (Hillier)"Most of the leaves are long ; narrow ; deeply incised or feathered" (Barber ; Phillips) "makes a fine shapely tree... a distinctive ornamental to any garden" (Bean) Sun-PSh/Med
Fern Leaf Beech has graceful finely cut leaves of dark green. Rounded crown deciduous tree growing 35' tall and wide or more with age.
