Fagus orientalis Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Thrives on a light or medium soil, doing well on chalk, but ill-adapted for heavy wet soil[1, 11]. Fairly tolerant of most conditions, this is the most successful non-native species of Fagus in Britain[200]. Young trees are very shade tolerant, but are subject to frost damage so are best grown in a woodland position which will protect them[200]. Hybridizes in nature with F. sylvatica[11]. Trees have surface-feeding roots and also cast a dense shade. This greatly inhibits the growth of other plants and, especially where a number of the trees are growing together, the ground beneath them is often almost devoid of vegetation.
