The Dwarf Beech, ''Fagus sylvatica'' Tortuosa Group, is a rare Cultivar Group of the European Beech with less than 1500 older specimens 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 in width than height, only seldom reaching a height of more than 15 m. It sometimes grows from seed and has formed colonies in Sweden ("Vresboken"), Denmark ("Vrange bøge"), Germany ("Süntel-Buchen"), France ("Faux de Verzy") and Italy ("Alberi serpente", nel Monte Pollino). A similar form is the Weeping Beech (''Fagus sylvatica'' Pendula Group), which has more pendulous branching. ==External links== * (Dwarf Beeches in France ) * (Dwarf Beeches in Germany ) * (Dwarf Beeches in Sweden ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「dwarf beech」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
