AM BEECH

Fagus grandifolia — The American Beech is one of the most majestic native trees in North America — instantly recognizable by its smooth, silver-gray bark and dense canopy of rich green, oval leaves that turn a warm golden bronze in fall and often persist through winter. A long-lived, slow-growing specimen tree that becomes more impressive with every passing decade. Its beechnuts provide valuable food for wildlife, and its distinctive bark makes it a four-season standout.
