Add elegant vertical structure and vibrant seasonal foliage to your garden with Lucas Columnar Hornbeam, a narrow upright tree known for its dense branching and striking yellow-orange fall color. In spring, inconspicuous flowers appear as the foliage emerges, providing subtle seasonal interest. The dark green summer leaves form a tight, columnar canopy that maintains a formal appearance, making it ideal for streetscapes, narrow spaces, and specimen plantings where height and fall color are desired.
