USDA ZONE 3-9
Ulmus americana, generally known as the American elm or, less commonly, as the white elm or water elm, is a species of elm native to eastern North America, naturally occurring from Nova Scotia west to Alberta and Montana, and south to Florida and central Texas. The American elm is an extremely hardy tree that can withstand winter temperatures as low as −42 °C (−44 °F). Trees in areas unaffected by Dutch elm disease (DED) can live for several hundred years. A prime example of the species was the Sauble Elm, which grew beside the banks of the Sauble River in Ontario, Canada, to a height of 43 m (140 ft), with a d.b.h of 196 cm (6.43 ft) before succumbing to DED; when it was felled in 1968, a tree-ring count established that it had germinated in 1701.

Trees arrived in great shape --sone even had leaves starting to push out! Open an unheated garage for a couple of weeks until things warm up here in Montana. Then they'll be going outside into the sun!





I have to admit that this is the first tree review I've ever done. Well, I ordered 5 elm trees and six came fast and packed well (for baby trees anyway). I know it sounds sort of odd to order trees from TN, but I could not find elm anywhere near me. Five of the six have sprouted now that the Maryland weather has turned better (I'm no tree expert - followed some instructions from Arbors). So, overall I am very excited. I was only hoping for two, so now I can give away some. If I need more trees, BotanicHaven is where I'm going. Cheers, Steve
