Been looking for a beech like this for long time, pretty much ever since I traded my old girl. This one will be similarly styled, not sure what variety Fagus this is, I'll probably find out when it pops buds in the spring. I'm hoping for sylvatica purpurea... but whatever it is, it has great fall color! Maple and K.Hornbeam shohin are good in color this year too...

All beautiful. Nice work, and great find!
I have a couple of syvaltica purpurea pendula. They need some work. It’s nice to see good examples to guide them along..
It will be nice to see the branch structure once your beech sheds its leaves.

Thanks, a good year for some things, but some got too cold and dropped early.

Beautiful trees. I have a soft spot for Beech.

Great stuff, Judy!
thanks brian, I’ve been lucky finding things this late summer/fall.
Great trees as usual and LOVE the pots as well!
beech getting a new pot for sure. I have one on the way I’m hoping it fits into. If it does, it’ll be awesome.

Very nice! Wish I could get colors like those, but then I’d have to deal with cold weather. :)
