Beech (Fagus L.) is a genus of trees in the beech family. There are more than a dozen species within it. They are mainly found in the temperate zone in the northern hemisphere.

The word "beech" is related to the word "book". Beech boards were used for the first book bindings, and when printing was invented, beech wood was used to make letters. Fagus (beech) is derived from the ancient Greek word phegos or fago (a tree with round, edible fruit). Sylvatica - means: growing in forests.

Beech trees are an important source of wood raw material. They are used, among other things, in the woodworking industry, carpentry, furniture making and many other fields.

They grow well in sunny or semi-shaded positions. The soil should be fertile, slightly acidic to neutral and moderately moist. They tolerate pruning very well, so even very narrow hedges of any height can be formed from them.
