Carpinus caroliniana, commonly known as Hornbeam, is a slow-growing, trimmed medium-sized deciduous tree with an eye-catching spherical shape.
Hornbeams are deciduous trees in the Betulaceae (birch) family and the Carpinus genus of flowering plants. The 30 to 40 species of Hornbeams[1] are found throughout much of the Northern Hemisphere’s temperate regions, with the largest number of species in East Asia, especially China.
