<I'd recommend a staggered/double-row of plants (40-60 Bare-Roots ) -
planted 18" / 45cm apart between plants-in-the-row & 15" / 30cm between
rows. (This works out to
5.25 plants/lin.metre )>
Beech, good choice, but just realised from Alan's first posting
'underplantng beneath street trees'. Would these trees be growing within
narrow strips of land along the roadside where the majority of roots are
going to be found eitherside of the stem beneath the verge! Any planting
within the verge would probably destroy the already confined tree roots.
So staggered planting, excavation etc here would appear to be a most
destructive activity for the trees.
