The Tasmanian Deciduous Beech - Nothofagus Gunii - tanglefoot, Deciduous beech.   Very fire-susceptible endemic species is found in subalpine rainforest and alpine heath on the wettest mountains in the state of Tasmania.  It rarely exceeds 8m in height. A beautiful sight in the Cradle Mountain World heritage area at Autumn time, a bronze-yellow colour

I grow a few in the country garden but they are very slow.  The mature tree gives a feeling of having being with us forever [as it just about has been!] the leaves are deep green, dainty and deeply indented on the upper surface
