A magnificent shade tree for general landscape use, with an upright vase shape and stunning mottled bark in various colors, very noticeable in winter; highly resistant to Dutch elm disease; rapidly becoming one of the most popular trees
Lacebark Elm has dark green foliage throughout the season. The small serrated pointy leaves turn an outstanding orange in the fall. Neither the flowers nor the fruit are ornamentally significant. The mottled brown bark is extremely showy and adds significant winter interest.
