Presentation transcript:

 The Beech forest is the dominant tree species in our Park  It is a large tree, capable of reaching heights of up to 30m.  Decidous tree with alternate,simple green leaves and a dense foliage.  Monoecious tree with unisexual flowers which appear in May.  The nuts are an important food for birds, rodents and wild boars.  The wood is very resistant and its hardness makes it well suited for minor carpentry,tools and toys.  In the areas of our Park it is primarily used as fire woods for fireplace.

 Decidous, broadleaf tree whose mature height vary from 10-30m.  Broad, oval leaves with shaped tooth at the edge, up to 22cm long.  Nuts, its fruits,very rich in starch,may be well-rounded or flat face and are within a green spiny case, called 'bur' that contains 2 to 3 nuts.  Firstly used as food source and timber.  It prefers fertile,deep, non-alkaline soils.  Susceptible to lots of severe phytopatologies, its presence is significantly being reduced in our forests.

 Large coniferous tree growing to 30m, called 'the prince of trees'.  - Evergreen monoecious tree with separated unisexual flowers.  - Branches are dense, regulalarly distributed along the bole.  - Bark is smooth in young trees; scaly with resin blisters in mature trees.  - Leaves are needle-like, flattened,2cm long and 2mm large,glossy green above and with two whitish-light blue bands on the lower surface.  - Fir cones face upward.  -The Silver Fir appears to have a silvery colour when seen from below.

 Small tree that can reach up to 10m; its habitat is close to the brooms.  Decidous tree with trifoliate leaves, belonging to the pea- family Fabaceae  The yellow flowers are pendolous clusters of flowers, 10-30cm long.  Fruits are pea-like leguminous with a low seed production.  Laburnum seeds are poisonous and can be lethal, the main toxin being Cytisine.

 It’s an herbaceous endemic plant at the risk of extinction.  It’s present in the norther Appenine zone and on French Alps.  It’s perennial by means of buds placed at ground level.  Height cm.  Endowed of hair on all surfaces.  On the compound leaves, the apical leaflet is trasformed in a simple or branched cirrus.  It grows on superficial soils derived from sandstone and exsposed to the south.

 Very rare plant that is found only between 1500 and 2000 meters in the reggiano and parmense Appennines.  It’s a perennial herbaceous plant, high 3-8 cm with a basal rosette of coriaceae leaves.  The pink-lilac flowers bloom on May and June.  Because of its rarity is absolutely defended, protected by “Berne convention”, it’s inserted in the red book of extinction plants in Italy, it’s defined priority species by UE “Habitat” Directive.

 In spring it’s whiten the sunny meadows in the range of 1000 metres above sea level specially in Logarghena zone on Braiola mountain.  It’s a perennial herbaceous plant, high cm, equipped with bulb and fasciculate roots.  The leaves are linear and ribbon, large 5-8 mm and more long than the flowering stem.  The flowers are fragrant and solitary white, the corolla has a width of about 4 cm.  At the centre of corolla it’s evident a yellow crown with red-orange edge.

 It’s an herbaceous plant that dominates the characteristic vegetation of wooded grasslands in the range of m above sea level where the arboreous covering is not more than 20%.  It’s mostly present on poor soils but with southern exposure.  It’s a perennial herbaceous bushy plant, it forms dense vegetation cushions for its ability to create new shoots from the base.  The leaf blade has regular ciliate magins with hairs on both sides.

 It’s an evergreen shrub that grows in grassland with acid soils, above the line of arboreous vegetations ( over 1800 m)  The pink flowers are clusters and they can be observed during the summer.  The leathery leaves have a characteristic brown color on the underside.

 It’s a bulbous plant very rare on ours Appennines.  The flowers have yellows petals and purple sepals outside the back.  The flowering stem is flexible and smooth.  The parallelinervie leaves are acute and glaucous.  The flower is unique and slightly inclined during the flowering.
