Fagus sylvatica
Beeches are large, long-lived deciduous trees native to England and Europe. They are great, low-maintenance big, elegant trees. Beeches bear fresh green foliage that changes to rich golden color in Autumn, with smooth grey bark. The bark is a favorite for name carving and many of the Beech trees you’ve seen probably have young lovers’ names etched into them for eternity (or the life of the tree).
A Beech tree can grow to quite some size, reaching heights of up to 40 meters, and is a great lawn specimen and shade tree for this reason. Also popular for hedging, screening or pleaching – the tallest and longest hedge in the world is made of Beech. Also tolerates poor or sandy soils, but doesn’t like waterlogged areas.
