European Beech
The European Beech (Fagus sylvatica) is a deciduous tree native to Europe. It is known for its stately appearance and is widely planted for its ornamental value in gardens and parks. The tree has a rounded crown and typically grows to a height of 50 to 70 feet, although some specimens can reach even greater heights. The bark of the European Beech is smooth and gray, adding to its attractive aesthetic. The leaves are oval-shaped with serrated edges and a glossy dark green color. In autumn, they turn a beautiful golden brown, adding a touch of warmth to the landscape. The European Beech is known for its longevity and can live for several centuries. It is a low-maintenance tree that prefers well-drained soil and can tolerate various light conditions, although it thrives best in full sun to partial shade. The European Beech is valued not only for its ornamental qualities but also for its wood, which is used in furniture making and other woodworking applications. Its dense foliage provides excellent shade and makes it a popular choice for parks and large gardens. With its elegant appearance and adaptability, the European Beech is a timeless and enduring choice for enhancing outdoor spaces.
