3. Where is the best place to plant a beech tree?

The best place to plant a beech tree is in full sun or partial shade. Beech trees need at least six hours of sunlight per day as they can tolerate some shade. Here are some specific tips for choosing a good location to plant a beech tree:

• Avoid planting beech trees where they might end up with wet feet.
• Ensure the site does not have strong winds which can break branches.
• Avoid planting them near overhead utilities as they can grow quite tall.
• Avoid planting them too close to buildings or other structures to avoid the root system damaging foundations and other structures.

When planting a beech tree, it is important to dig a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball of the tree. The hole should also be deep enough so that the root ball is level with the ground. Backfill the hole with soil and firm it down gently to remove any air pockets. Water the tree deeply after planting and stake the tree to ensure it is stable.

4. How long do NZ beech trees live?

New Zealand beech trees have a long lifespan, typically ranging from 200 to 400 years. However, some beech trees have been known to live for over 600 years.
