Leaf blade: the leaf blade of park tree is ovate or ovate elliptic, and the edge is near the whole or the upper part has round teeth; the leaf blade of beech tree is ovate, ovate lanceolate or elliptical, and the edge has sawtooth and short tip. Fruit: the single leaf axil of the fruit is nearly spherical; the drupe of the beech is slightly smaller than the former, with a diameter of about 4 mm.

First, the difference between leaves

The leaves are ovate or ovate elliptic, about 3-10 cm long, apex acuminate or cuspidate, base almost symmetrical or slightly oblique, margin nearly entire or middle upper part with round teeth.

The leaves of beech are ovate, ovate lanceolate or elliptic, with great changes in size and shape. The apex is acuminate or caudate acuminate, the base is oblique, the edge is serrate, and there is short tip.

Second, the difference between fruit

There are few 2-3 assemblages in the axils of the single leaf, which are nearly spherical in shape and about 5-7 mm in diameter. Yellow or orange when mature

Beech is a drupe, slightly slanted and sunken, slightly smaller than the former, about 4 mm in diameter, with a dorsal ridge.
