The Upright European Hornbeam, also known as Carpinus betulus 'Fastigiata', is a deciduous tree that is native to Europe. It is characterized by its upright, columnar growth habit, which makes it a popular choice for formal hedges, screens, or as a specimen tree in landscaping.

The Upright European Hornbeam has dense foliage with serrated, dark green leaves that turn yellow in the fall. It produces inconspicuous flowers in the spring, followed by small winged nuts in the summer.

When it comes to growing conditions, the Upright European Hornbeam prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is relatively low-maintenance and can tolerate a range of soil types, including clay and loam.
