Yes, you can buy direct from our Southland nursery. We prefer bookings so we can set aside the right time for you.

We’re open Monday to Thursday, 8am to 5pm and Friday 8am to 4pm.

We don’t offer a planting service, however for specialist projects we recommend working with a landscaper who understands plant species, site conditions and the level of detail your project may need. We can point you toward trusted consultants in your region.

We’re always happy to help with tree selection.

The best time to plant is during the cooler months, from Autumn through to Spring. Trees establish more easily in these Seasons as soil stays moist and temperatures are steady.

Planting is still possible through Summer if irrigation is in place and the site can be kept consistently watered. With the right care, year‑round planting can work well.

We deliver New Zealand wide. Our team arranges delivery for you, whether it’s a single tree or a full project load. We work with trusted transport partners to make sure your trees arrive safely and in great condition.

Get in touch and we’ll talk through the best approach, including pricing.

Yes, we offer contract growing. We have extensive nursery space available and can tailor growing programmes to suit your project quantities and timelines.

FAGUS sylvatica ‘Dawyck Purple’ – Columnar English Beech

Product Details

Columnar English Beech

The purple leaf version of the strikingly narrow and tall FAGUS sylvatica English beech is remarkable for its autumn colour, the result of a gradual intensification of shades that takes the leathery leaves from purple in spring to deep burgundy. Branches are upright and well informed, making this a bold and dramatic choice for entrance ways and avenues. Deciduous and hardy, it will grow to 6 x 2 metres.

 

Suitable for: Formal avenues and entranceways.

Features: Narrow columnar form.

Botanical Name: FAGUS sylvatica ‘Dawyck Purple’
