Description
The ‘Asplenifolia’ is a highly unusual variety of beech that has extremely ornamental fern like foliage. The leaves are deeply serrated and dark green in colour over summer, later turning to golden yellow and orange over autumn. This tree grows with a pyramidal habit for many years, but can eventually grow to have a more rounded crown when mature. This can make a great statement tree for a medium-large sized garden.
