Abstract
Multi-edge trees as introduced in a recent paper of Dziemiańczuk are plane trees where multiple edges are allowed. We first show that -ary multi-edge trees where the out-degrees are bounded by are in bijection with classical -ary trees. This allows us to analyse parameters such as the height. The main part of this paper is concerned with multi-edge trees counted by their number of edges. The distribution of the number of vertices as well as the height are analysed asymptotically.
