Hi Burkhard & All,
I can't furnish a clear answer beyond observing that some very
large Beech in Kentville got me curious because they had no hint of
canker. So I asked a neighbor with previous connections in the nursery
business and borrowed a book--- Taylors guide to trees.
They list F. grandifolia, F. sylvatica (European Beech with many
horticultural forms ) F. sylvatica pendula {weeping} and sylvatica
Riversii\ deep purple foliage. All Latin to me.
