THE
American Elm
About the American Elm :
The American Elm tree, Ulmus americana, is the
largest and most wide spread elm tree in the United
States. These Elm trees have a tall drooping crown
growing above divided trunks which give the Ulmus
americana a distictive vase-like appearance. This
shade tree grows best on rich moist soils but will
withstand less than optimum conditions.
American Elm trees are used on lawns,
shelterbelts, and as an ornamental. This deciduous
tree provides birds and mammals with food from the
fruit and the buds of this native tree. It grows
rapidly and it is widely adaptable. |
