FAGUS SYL DAWYCK PURPLE
Grower Notes:
The Dawyck Purple European Beech is a medium-sized, deciduous tree with a columnar habit. It has large, dark purple leaves that emerge deep reddish-purple in spring and darken to burgundy purple through summer. Its smooth, gray bark adds winter interest.
The Dawyck Purple European Beech thrives in deep, rich, somewhat moist, well-drained soils in full to part sun. It does not tolerate standing water or poorly drained sites. Once established, it will only need occasional watering during prolonged droughts. This low maintenance tree rarely needs pruned and makes an ideal specimen plant that you cannot help but notice.
