American Beech Seedlings

American Beech seedlings also commonly called the Fagus Grandifolia or the Latin name. They do well growing in zones 3-8. They can take growth up to twenty-four inches per year. At full maturity, they can grow well over seventy feet tall and forty feet wide. The root system is more shallow, but they do the best growing in deep soil with full sun. The leaves or foliage can range from green to dark green in the spring and summer with bronze or yellow in the fall. The foliage is oval shaped, and this tree is used for its shade and as an ornamental tree.
