UK - Kington - Hornbeam tree garden landscape

Young common hornbeams growing in a Herefordshire meadow. Freshly-trimmed and shaped, the young saplings are spaced around this garden field. Like alders and hazels, hornbeams are part of the birch family, all of which produce male and female flowers in the form of catkins. In hornbeams, the catkins are normally hidden until spring. There are around 70 species of hornbeams found worldwide, mainly in East Asia, but the one most often found in the British Isles is the common hornbeam.
