Dawyck Gold Beech is a stunning deciduous tree that boasts a narrow, upright growth habit, making it a popular choice for small gardens, landscapes, and hedges. This elegant tree features unique, bright gold foliage that emerges in the spring, creating a striking contrast against the dark brown bark. The leaves gradually transition to a deep green in the summer months, and then transform into brilliant yellow and orange hues in the fall. The Dawyck Gold Beech is low maintenance, drought tolerant, and has a high resistance to pests and diseases. Its unique coloration and form make it an eye-catching addition to any garden or landscape.
Care Guide
Watering: Water newly planted Dawyck Gold Beech deeply at least once a week, especially during hot and dry weather. Once the tree is established, water it deeply every two to three weeks or as needed to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
Maintenance: Remove any dead, damaged, or diseased wood as it appears to help prevent further damage to the tree.
Pruning: If desired, you can prune Dawyck Gold Beech in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Prune any dead, damaged, or diseased wood, as well as any crossing branches or shoots that are growing in the wrong direction. Avoid pruning too heavily, as this can stimulate excessive growth and reduce the tree's overall health and vigor.
(Optional):Fertilize using a slow-release, balanced fertilizer applied in early spring before new growth begins.
