Hornbeam leaves provide food for many small moth caterpillars and the nut-like seeds are devoured by wood pigeons and the uncommon and elusive hawfinch.

The bark is grey with a silvery tinge, and the leaves produce attractive yellow and orange autumn colours. The female flowers are greenish catkins up to 12cm long and the fruit is a small nut with three-lobed wings to help with wind dispersal.
