Michael -
Would Notofagus stay discreetly thin, or become spreading?  Do they all
eventually become very large forest trees?

Moira, do you know?  Having seen some in NZ, some of them are quite ponderous -
are they all that way?  Some seem to be the main forest tree - do they need full
sun when young?  Will they start out in full shade?
