Description
Native to the regions of Chile and Argentina, Nothofagus x alpina is a sizable and rapidly growing deciduous tree characterised by its conical, somewhat open growth habit and impressive autumn foliage.
The beech-like leaves of this tree are oval, pointed, and prominently veined, displaying a deep green hue during the growing season and transforming into brilliant shades of orange and red in the autumn. Although its flowers are discreet, the female flowers give rise to petite winged fruits that encase small, yellowish nuts.
Also recognised as the Mountain beech, the Nothofagus x alpina thrives in areas with mild winter conditions and ample rainfall. This tree is an excellent choice as a standout specimen in a park or a generously-sized garden, with a mature height of 25m+.
