A eukaryote is a cell or organism that possesses a clearly defined nucleus. The cells of all multicellular organisms (plants, animals, and fungi) are eukaryotic. Algae and protists also are eukaryotic organisms.
(Redirected from Weeping Beech) The weeping beech, Fagus sylvatica 'Pendula', is a cultivar of the deciduous European beech. The weeping beech is characterized by its shape with sweeping, pendulous branches. The stem of the tree may not be visible from a distance due to the presence of the covering weeping branches.
It is one of only two trees to be designated as such (and, after the death of the Weeping beech tree in Queens in 1998, the only landmarked tree still standing). Carthan continued her campaign by convincing the City to convert three nearby abandoned homes into the Magnolia Tree Earth Center. The brownstones on Lafayette and Marcy Avenues behind Hattie Carthan Garden date to the 1880s and now feature a mural depicting Mrs. Carthan.
