A eukaryote is a cell or organism that possesses a clearly defined nucleus. The cells of all multicellular organisms (plants, animals, and fungi) are eukaryotic. Algae and protists also are eukaryotic organisms.
(Redirected from Weeping Beech) The weeping beech, Fagus sylvatica 'Pendula', is a cultivar of the deciduous European beech. The weeping beech is characterized by its shape with sweeping, pendulous branches. The stem of the tree may not be visible from a distance due to the presence of the covering weeping branches.
They are recognized by their smooth, light gray bark. American beech trees retain this smooth texture their entire lives. In shady forests, beeches grow up long and straight with small, dense crowns of foliage. In open, sunny areas beech trees develop shorter trunks with horizontal branches and wide foliage crowns.
