About Hornbeam Hedging Screens (Carpinus betulus)

Hornbeam hedging screens are an innovative garden screening solution that mean you can enjoy the privacy and security of a long lasting fence with the aesthetic and environmental benefits of a hedge.

Our Hornbeam screens are grown on galvanised steel frames with several plants used in each 120cm wide trough to create full coverage of the frame. Hornbeam hedging screens are easy to install and make a low maintenance, sustainable living fence or wall.

Different uses for Hornbeam Screens

Hornbeam screens are an ideal alternative to fences and bushy hedges. They are an instant, cost-effective perimeter solution.

• Family Gardens: Instant security - living screens, with their hidden steel framework, look stunning whilst keeping children and pets in and intruders out. Instant privacy - create a secluded area within your garden using screens as partitions or keep prying eyes out by planting Hornbeam hedging screens around your boundary.
• Space saving: The narrow 20cm depth is particularly useful for small gardens that want to maintain a level of privacy without compromising on space. Unlike a hedge, the narrow screen performs the same role whilst maximising the available outdoor area.
• Businesses and Public areas: Instant security with an attractive aesthetic - with a ten year guarantee on the steel frame, you can secure your perimeter and maintain peace of mind. Additional benefit of low maintenance with long-term use and seasonal colour.
• Envrionmental Benefits: Hedging screens can help to combat pollution of differing types in their immediate area in the same way as full hedges; leaves act as both filters of air toxins and and noise to a degree. They are also partial windbreaks.
• Prevent anti-social behaviour: Hedging screens can be planted instead of fencing or against walls to prevent graffiti.
• Urban gardens: Hedging screens are popularly used in cities to create roof gardens and green areas.They are ideal for city living due to their narrow depth but varying height along with ease and diversity of installation.
• Save on the paperwork! Unlike walls, you do not need planning permission to erect living green panels of up to 2.2m high.
