NL : Beech trees were mainly planted for wood production because they form such beautiful straight trunks. Did you know that a giant like a beech is also very vulnerable? He really can't stand direct sunlight on his thin bark. To protect yourself from sunburn, the foliage of the beech is nicely closed. Try to discover the sky through the leaves of the beech and compare with other tree species. It is also very sensitive to air pollution. Need it be said that the beech is getting harder and harder? The oldest beech trees of the Botanic Garden were planted around. These beech trees are now reaching their old age. Due to illness or storms, a few specimens die every year in this very elderly population, a completely natural process.
FR : Les hêtres ont surtout été plantés pour la production de bois en raison de leurs magnifiques troncs bien droits. Savez-vous qu'un tel géant est très fragile ? Il ne supporte pas la lumière directe sur son tronc dont l'écorce est mince. C'est pourquoi la couronne du hêtre est très dense et fermée. Essayez de voir le ciel au travers d'un hêtre et comparez avec d'autres espèces d'arbres. Ils sont également sensibles à la pollution de l'air. Les gros hêtres du Jardin botanique ont été plantés vers 1850. Pour eux, la vieillesse commence. Chaque année, certains d'entre eux sont mutilés par une tempête ou abattus en raison d'une maladie, mais c'est normal pour des hêtres d'un tel âge.
