BEECH. The Beeches are among the most valuable 
trees for avenues, screens or lawns. The sturdy, 
solid trunk, smooth gray bark, lustrous foliage, 
disposed in horizontal masses, and the broken and 
spirited sky outline are unsurpassed. Growth 
moderate. As they usually transplant with diffi- 
culty, our trees have all been root-pruned and 
have fibrous roots, which enable them to be moved 
as safely as a maple.

than the European.

tree of medium size and dark foliage. Valuable 
for planting near the sea and in wet soils.
