European beech is an excellent shade tree on a relatively short trunk that has smooth, dark grey bark that is reminiscent of elephant hide. Foliage appears bronze-purple with splashes of rose, cream, and pink all through the growing season before changing to shades of yellow and copper. Beech prefer moist soils, however well-drained. Relatively disease and insect resistant. Beech produce triangular shaped fruits called beechnuts that are edible. 'Roseomarginata' is excellent for a specimen tree or as an accent to a mixed flower border.
