Native to Europe and parts of Asia, this elm, also called Wych Elm or Camperdown Elm, was introduced into the United States and Canada as a cold tolerant ornamental tree with attractive foliage. The trees can reach heights of 40 m and have broad crowns. This species is susceptible to Dutch Elm disease, but is not especially favored as a host by the bark beetles that spread the disease.
