The beech (Fagus sylvatica) is widely used for creating hedges ranging from approximately 80 cm to 400 cm in height. The beech’s leaves usually emerge in late April through the first week of May. The fall color of the common beech is orange. In winter, a number of withered leaves usually remain on the branches and do not fall off until the following year, when the beech sprouts new growth. A beech hedge tolerates shade.To create a sturdier hedge, two or three rows are sometimes planted in a triangular pattern. If you want to have beech hedges planted, the best time to do so is from November through March.
