Hop Hornbeam is native in southern Europe. They have a conical or irregular crown and a scaly, rough bark. They have alternate and double-toothed birch-like leaves 3–10 cm long. The flowers are produced in spring, with male catkins 5–10 cm long and female catkins 2–5 cm long. This species makes a very good hedging species and can be used as a wind break and for the production of a variety of truffles. This tree is very productive and hardy in Northern European climates and suited to chalky soils with a high pH; the seeds were sourced from a reputable British supplier. This tree commonly grows with mycorrhizal fungi; we can supply these trees hosting Tuber aestivum (black summer / autumn truffle).
