  • Lacebark Elm Scientific Name: Ulmus Parvifolia Order
    Common Name: Lacebark Elm Scientific Name: Ulmus parvifolia Order: Urticales Family: Ulmaceae Description The leaf arrangement of the lacebark elm (also known as Chinese elm) is alternate. Each leaf is oval with a serrate margin. Typical leaf coloration is leathery green, with purple, red, and yellow in the fall. The tree grows to a height of 40 to 50 feet with a spread of 35 to 50 feet. The bark is thin, thus giving rise to its common name as the lacebark elm. The tree produces a hard and dry fruit that brown and typically less than .5 inches in length. The root system contains a number of large-diameter members located close to the surface, and can grow for a long distance from the trunk. Growth Habit Lacebark elm is deciduous, but has been known to be evergreen in the southern extent of its range. The trees typically have a single trunk, although some have split trunks. They typically grow to a mature height of over 10 – 12 feet. It produces a bloom from late summer to fall which is yellow to green in color. A fruit is set in the fall. Hardiness Zone(s) The USDA hardiness zones for this plant are 5B through 10A. Culture Lacebark elm has no demanding culture for its habitat, and is considered to be quite hardy. It grows well in part shade as well as full sun, and has a high drought tolerance. For habitats near ocean, it has a moderate air-borne salt tolerance. For soils, it tolerates nearly all types, from clay, to sand, to loam.

  • Ulmus 'Patriot'
    Ulmus ‘Patriot’ The U.S. National Arboretum presents Ulmus ‘Patriot’, a hybrid elm for planting sites demanding a big, tough tree. ‘Patriot’ was bred and selected for pest and disease tolerance and a wide, vase-shaped crown. Fast-growing and highly tolerant to Dutch elm disease, it is easily established in the nursery or landscape. Select ‘Patriot’ for those park, lawn or highway sites requiring a tree of exceptional vigor. U.S. National Arboretum Plant Introduction Floral and Nursery Plants Research Unit U.S. National Arboretum, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, 3501 New York Ave. NE., Washington, DC 20002 ‘Patriot’ hybrid elm Botanical name: Ulmus ‘Patriot’ (U. ‘Urban’ × U. davidiana var. japonica ‘Prospector’) (NA 60071; PI 566597) Family: Ulmaceae Hardiness: USDA Zones 4–9 Development: ‘Patriot’ resulted from a controlled pollination made in 1980 by A. M. Townsend between Ulmus 'Urban' (a complex hybrid involving U. pumila, U. ×hollandica, and U. minor) and a selection of the Asian elm U. davidiana var. japonica that was later released as ‘Prospector’. ‘Patriot’ was selected initially for its tolerance to Dutch elm disease in field inoculation studies in Delaware, Ohio, and Glenn Dale, Maryland. In further field and laboratory evaluations, ‘Patriot’ showed the highest level of elm leaf beetle tolerance of more than 600 hybrids resulting from the 1980 cross. Released 1993. Significance: ‘Patriot’ is a hybrid elm with a moderately vase-shaped crown, showing high levels of tolerance to two of the major disease and insect pests of landscape elms. It has also shown field tolerance to natural infections of elm yellows.

  • Elm Bark Beetles Native and Introduced Bark Beetles of Elm
    Elm Bark Beetles Native and introduced bark beetles of elm Name and Description—Native elm bark beetle—Hylurgopinus rufipes Eichhoff Smaller European elm bark beetle—Scolytus multistriatus (Marsham) Banded elm bark beetle—S. schevyrewi Semenov [Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae] Three species of bark beetles are associated with elms in the United States: (1) the native elm bark beetle (fig. 1) occurs in Canada and south through the Lake States to Alabama and Mississippi, including Kansas and Nebraska; (2) the introduced smaller European elm bark beetle (fig.2) occurs through- out the United States; and (3) the introduced banded elm bark beetle (fig. 3) is common in western states and is spreading into states east of the Missis- sippi River. Both the smaller European elm bark beetle and the banded elm bark beetle were introduced into the United States from Europe and Asia, respectively. Hylurgopinus rufipes adults are approximately 1/12-1/10 inch (2.2-2.5 mm) long; Scolytus multistriatus adults are approximately 1/13-1/8 inch (1.9-3.1 mm) long; and S. schevyrewi adults are approximately 1/8-1/6 inch (3-4 mm) long. The larvae are white, legless grubs. Hosts—Hosts for the native elm bark beetle include the various native elm Figure 1. Native elm bark beetle.

  • Ulmus Pumila Siberian Elm1 Edward F
    Fact Sheet ST-656 October 1994 Ulmus pumila Siberian Elm1 Edward F. Gilman and Dennis G. Watson2 INTRODUCTION This rapidly-growing deciduous tree has a rounded canopy with somewhat drooping branches, and reaches 40 to 60 feet in height with a spread of 35 to 50 feet (Fig. 1). The glossy green, two to three-inch-long by 0.5 to 1-inch-wide leaves turn pale yellow in fall before dropping. The inconspicuous, green, springtime flowers are produced in small clusters among the leaves and are followed by half-inch-long, flat, winged seedpods which mature during early summer. The wood is fairly brittle and subject to damage during storms, which creates a lot of twig litter on the lawn afterward. Since major limbs split from the crotches on older trees, this is considered a tree to avoid. Most urban tree managers and horticulturists will not recommend planting this tree. However, recent observations showed that improper pruning, including topping, may be partially responsible for the tree’s weak-wooded reputation. GENERAL INFORMATION Figure 1. Mature Siberian Elm.

  • Classic Lacebark Elm
    Athena ‘Emer I’ Classic Lacebark Elm Lineage Ulmus parvifolia (Chinese elm, Lacebark elm, Drake elm). Also known as ‘Emerald Isle’. PP7551 Introduced in 1989 (Dave’s Garden, 2011). Tree Form A medium-sized tree with a broad rounded canopy, often with a trunk that forks resulting in a vase shape similar to that of the American elm (Floridata, updated 11/18/2010). Tree size, leaf size and growth rate half of that of the American elm, and they are often planted as a single tree (Warren, 2000). Height: 30 to 40 feet Width: 35 to 45, up to 60 foot wide crown spread (Delmar Learning, undated; UConn, undated)) Foliage Dark green in summer, leathery, almost black; bronze to bronze-brown in fall (Cornell, undated). Leaves simple, 1 to 2 inches long, but half as wide. Ovate, margins rounded to serrate (Delmar Learning, undated). Late deciduous, almost evergreen in mild climates (Floridata, 2010). Culture NA Disease and Insect Information Literature (Dutch elm disease studies, insect resistance assessments, etc.): Resistant to Dutch Elm Disease (DED), phloem necrosis and Elm Leaf Beetles (Delmar Learning, undated). It resists DED and shows very good performance under dry conditions (UConn, undated). Completely immune to Gypsy Moth, and only 10% of the leaf tissue was consumed by Japanese Beetle, the lowest of all the asian elms tested in a no-choice study (Paluch et al., 2006). When the Japanese Beetles were given a choice of species they did not feed on the U. parvifolia at all (Paluch et al., 2006). In an earlier similar study, U. parvifolia was the most resistant of all cultivars and hybrids to the Japanese Beetle (Miller et al., 1999).

  • ELMS for NEBRASKA Justin Evertson & Bob Henrickson, NSA 2011
    THE NEBRASKA STATEWIDE ARBORETUM PRESENTS ELMS FOR NEBRASKA Justin Evertson & Bob Henrickson, NSA 2011. For more plant information, visit arboretum.unl.edu or retreenbraska.unl.edu. Elms are majestic trees with a tall, arching habit that makes them useful for providing shade along streets, parks, and backyards. Elms are also relatively tolerant of poor soils and extreme weather. While Dutch elm disease has eliminated much of the old elm population in Nebraska, many new hybrids and cultivars show promising resistance and are making the elm o.k. to plant again. Elm Species 1. American Elm - Ulmus americana: disease resistant varieties include ‘Princeton’, ‘Jefferson’, ‘Valley Forge’ and ‘New Harmony’; 50-70’x50-70’. Note that ‘Valley Forge’ has poor branch angles and shows a tendency to break apart in wind storms. 2. Japanese Elm - Ulmus davidiana var. japonica (very cold tolerant; rounded habit; glossy green; 45’x 45’) 3. Lacebark Elm - Ulmus parvifolia (distinctive mottled bark; small glossy leaves; 35’x 25’) 4. Rock Elm - Ulmus thomasii (distinctive corky stems; upright habit; DED resistance in west; 50-60’x 30-40’) Elm Hybrids and Cultivars 5. ‘Accolade’ - looks like American elm; Morton Arboretum hybrid of U. japonica and U. wilsoniana; 50’x 40’. 6. ‘Cathedral’ - tough and adaptable; developed in Wisconsin; U. pumila x U. japonica; 40-50’x 40-50’. 7. ‘Discovery’ is a promising U. davidiana cultivar selected from Manitoba Canada; 45-50’x40-45’. 8. ‘Emerald Sunshine’ is a cultivar of Ulmus propinqua known for clean habit and yellow fall color; 30-40’. 9. ‘Frontier’ - smaller, glossy leaves; lacy bark pattern; purple fall color; U.
