Description
The Hornbeam Dome at 1.2m brings quiet structure to a planting scheme. Rounded and well proportioned, it feels entirely at home in gardens where thought and restraint are clearly part of the design.
Hornbeam has a reputation for being quietly capable, and this dome wears it well. Fresh green growth appears in spring, deepens through summer, and turns warm and handsome in autumn before settling into a sculptural winter outline. It’s formal, certainly, but never fussy, rewarding regular shaping with a dense, reliable form that looks better with each passing year.

How will my hedge arrive?
All our Hedging is supplied with a rootball wrapped in hessian as standard. Container grown options are also available out of season or upon request. We’ll be happy to discuss the best format for your needs before finalising your order.
Growing & Care
Hornbeam dome topiary is refreshingly unfazed by most garden conditions. It performs well in full sun or partial shade and is particularly tolerant of heavier soils — a relief for those who prefer not to redesign their garden around a single plant. Water regularly during establishment, then trim once or twice a year to maintain the dome’s proportions and encourage dense, even growth.
Common Uses
This dome is ideal for lining paths, softening formal layouts or bringing rhythm to larger planting schemes. It works excellently in repetition, offering structure with just enough seasonal variation to keep things interesting.
