American beech is monoecious (single house); with male and female flowers separate on the same tree. It usually flowers in April to early May with the emerging leaves. The fruit consists of a bur, which usually contains 2 triangular edible nuts. The nuts are sweet and are utilized for food by wildlife. Fruiting occurs from September to October. Beech trees begin producing seed when 40 years old and produces seed at 2-8 year intervals. Most seeds drop to the ground. A few are carried by rodents or blue jays, but seed dispersal is limited. Most seeds will germinate in the first year but after that the seeds loose much of their viability. Beech can also regenerate by root suckers or stump sprouts. Beechnuts are roasted and eaten or used as a coffee substitute. The leaves and bark are used to make dyes. Beech wood is used to make flooring, furniture, veneer plywood and railroad ties. It is especially favored as fuel wood because of its high density and good burning qualities. Coal tar made from beech wood is used to protect wood from rotting and creosote made from beech wood is used to treat various human and animal disorders.

It is one of my favorite places sitting over looking Woodbury Pond in Maine from our lake shore deck and getting to look up at the beautiful green canopy above!
