Fagus sylvatica, European beech, is a large tree that is capable of growing to 160 ft tall and typically lives 150 to 200 years. It is the dominant plant in undisturbed habitats because of its height. The tree is used as an ornamental specimen in landscapes. The wood is used in furniture construction, finish carpentry, wooden mallets and workbenches and firewood. The fruit is edible.
