Description
Fagus sylvatica ‘Riversii’ – Rivers Purple Beech is a striking, round-shaped deciduous tree. Its deep purple-red, almost black leaves have wavy margins and drop cleanly in winter, creating a bold seasonal display.
Originally developed in England, this variety was introduced by Thomas Rivers’ nursery around 1860. It remains the darkest of the copper beeches, admired for its dramatic foliage and heritage value.
The Riversii Beech thrives in moist, well-drained soil and full sun, which enhances its rich colour. It grows to approximately 10 x 5 metres, making it an excellent shade tree for parks, avenues, and spacious landscapes.
