Fagus sylvatica 'Red Obelisk'

This less common cultivar bears dissected leaves similar to 'Rohanii' emerging dark red-purple, often mixed with a sprinkling of even lighter margined leaves throughout creating a very appealing textural effect. The upright, pyramidal to columnar habit is very pleasing and lends well to locations with limited lateral space. Subject to reversion. Best colour in full sun. H7
