    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This beautiful specimen tree from Germany holds the purple foliage color through the summer. The foliage breaks bud about a week later than most others, which may be beneficial to areas with late frosts. The young tree is very narrow, but will widen with age. Growth Rate 6-12"

    The darkest purple of the purple beeches! It leafs out a little later but holds its color better than most of the others. It shows a contrasting lighter vein color on its somewhat smaller than typical leaves. Very pretty.
