Water Saving Tip:

Even though it's hot, your lawn only needs to be watered twice a week to stay healthy.

And don't water the whole lawn for a brown spot—drag out a hose.

  • Description

  • Notes

This beech has purple leaves with irregular rose and pinkish-white margins. Slowly grows 30 to 40 feet tall and wide. The leaves look best when provided with afternoon shade, as our hot dry summers may scorch the white margins.
