This gorgeous classic tree features rough, leathery leaves that show shiny, rich green in the summer and go yellow in the fall.
Its broadly rounded crown and spreading, vase-shaped structure create an impressive silhouette. But it’s the fascinating “jigsaw puzzle” bark that brings you up close.
Gray, tan, green patches form all over the tree’s surface, giving it a unique visual character. These elms are resistant to Dutch elm disease and does well in dry conditions.
Since they're so disease resistant, these elms are very long-lived. They hardly ever experience snapped limbs, and they often live for over one-hundred years under good growing conditions.
American Elm Trees very often used as shade trees because of their graceful, arching form. Very commonly found lining streets and driveways because of their high tolerance to environmental stresses like smog.
