Fagus sylvatica Dawyck, commonly known as Dawyck Beech, is a narrow, upright cultivar of European beech prized for its elegant columnar shape and deep green foliage. Growing 40 to 50 feet tall but only 10 to 15 feet wide, it brings strong vertical structure to formal gardens, entrances, or as a striking specimen in open spaces. Its glossy leaves turn golden-bronze in fall before dropping to reveal smooth gray bark. Fagus sylvatica Dawyck is an excellent choice for creating year-round architectural interest with minimal spread.
Columnar form: Naturally upright habit is ideal for tight or formal spaces
Seasonal beauty: Rich green foliage turns golden-bronze in autumn
Low maintenance: Holds shape with little pruning
Sun exposure: Full sun to part shade
Soil needs: Prefers moist, well-drained soil; tolerates clay and loam
Maintenance: Minimal—occasional pruning for shape, if desired
Vertical accent: Adds height and drama to entryways or small gardens
Formal design: Excellent choice for symmetrical or alleé plantings
Specimen tree: A strong focal point in lawns or large beds
Bird habitat: Dense foliage provides seasonal cover
Low wildlife disturbance: Non-invasive and stable in managed landscapes
Supports insects: Beech trees are host plants for various native caterpillars
