?Fastigiata? is a Upright Hornbeam, that flowers from March until May. It produces masses of fresh green leaflets that form neatly in a slender, pyramidal form. Its decorative catkins add extra interest and create ornamental value in dull outdoor spaces. Your Carpinus would look fabulous as an attractive hedge, in a woodland and low maintenance gardening scheme. It enjoys semi shade to progress and will develop in height over time to 7m, along with a spread of 3m.
