Hi a;ll
Was given this whan my friend downsized home and he couldn't take all his trees with him!
I had just trimmed it back before the pic and got rid of all the unruley shoots!!
I'm not a lover of Beech, The leaves always seem too large and I dislike that they hang on through winter until new buds in spring pushes them off, I have to say that i'd rather have Hornbeam any day!!
They always seem to be sticky like they're full of Aphids but I never find any!!
EDIT- Forgot to say, I think the far left trunk needs reducing in height to get the triangular canopy..
