FAGUS. THE BEECHES 



A sample of our big, bushy European Beech Fagus syl- 

 vatica. We have hundreds of such specimens. They are suitable 

 for individual planting or because of the fact that the leaves, 

 after turning brown in Autumn cling fast until new ones come 

 in Spring, this Beech is just about as efficient for screening 

 purposes the year round as evergreens, and it is less costly. 



THESE are among the most attractive orna- 

 mental trees for lawn or park plantings. 

 They are also useful for high screens or as 

 specimens. Hardy, and rarely subjected to insect 

 ravages. The deep, dark red leaves of the purple 

 varieties, the delicately cut foliage of the fern-leaved 

 and the grotesqueness of the Weeping Beech are 

 characteristics meriting their more general use.
