Curiosity about me

The important moments in your tree's life.

Let's start with introductions

The Beech tree can be found in many forests in Europe and typically on the Alps and Apennines. It can reach 40 meters in height, with an average trunk diameter of 80-100 cm. It can live up to 300 years, even if recently some have been identified in Italy estimated to be around 500 years old.

Meaning

Security

The Beech is able to withstand intense frost, has a slow growth and a strong and firm root system. Features that make it a real security!

2030

-300 kg

* L’arbre continuera à absorber du CO2 même après dix ans de vie. Par conséquent, il s’agit d’une estimation prudente.
