PURPLE EUROPEAN BEECH


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.

Planting Tips

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in a location with full sun to partial shade. Water regularly, but avoid overwatering. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize annually with a balanced fertilizer. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and promote healthy growth.
