Nothofagus – Southern Beech <\/strong>–<\/p>\n

There are about 35 species of fast growing evergreen or deciduous trees and shrubs in this genus. They occur in the southern Hemisphere (New Guinea and New Caledonia to Australia, New Zealand, and South America), where they occur as forest trees from sea level to the mountains. They produce dark green. Alternate, simple, smooth edge or toothed, sometimes wavy edge leaves. They bear insignificant fruits and flowers. They are grown for their habit and foliage, and, incase of deciduous species for their attractive autumn rich bronze hues in fall. Grow as specimen trees in a large garden or woodland garden. In the wild, they often attain much greater height than in cultivation.<\/p>\n

Grow in fertile, moist but well drained, acidic soil in full sun. Shelter evergreen species from strong cold winds, at least when young. Protect from salt laden winds.<\/p>\n

Prone to root rot.<\/em><\/p>\n

N. oblique – Roble – Roble Beech –<\/strong> This fast growing, narrowly to broadly conical, deciduous tree from Chile and Argentina grows 7-100′ feet tall and at least 50′ feet wide.\u00a0\u00a0 From arching shoots it carries opposite, oval shaped, dark green leaves, to 3″ long, paler beneath, with usually 8-10 pairs of veins and doubly toothed edges that turn reddish-orange in autumn. On older tree the reddish gray bark splits into plate and ultimately is attractively furrowed.<\/p>\n
