FEATURED NATIVE TREE: Fagus grandiflora, American beech

The American beech is an iconic, sturdy shade tree with smooth, gray bark that is frequently a target of name-carving vandals. It produces small (beech) nuts in a showy pod that are valued by wildlife and visually unique. Its dark green leaves turn a beautiful yellow in fall.
