Dwarf Beech



The Dwarf Beech, ''Fagus sylvatica'' Tortuosa Group, is a rare cultivar of the European Beech with less than 1500 older specimen in Europe. It is also known as Twisted Beech or Parasol Beech. It is a wide-spreading tree with distinctive twisted and contorted branches that are quite pendulous at their ends. With its short and twisted trunk the Dwarf Beech grows more into the width than up. It comes true from seed and has formed colonies in Sweden ("Vresboken"), Denmark ("Vrange bøge"), Germany ("Suentelbuchen") and France ("Faux de Verzy"). A similar form is the Weeping Beech (''Fagus sylvatica'' Pendula Group), which has more pendulous branching. == External links == * [http://membres.lycos.fr/faggia/botanique.htm Dwarf Beeches in France] * [http://www.suentelbuchen.de Dwarf Beeches in Germany] * [http://www.zwoje-scrolls.com/troll/ Dwarf Beeches in Sweden] Fagaceae
