Ulmus propinqua ‘JFS-Bieberich’
Emerald Sunshine® Elm
Zone: 5 Height: 30' Spread: 25'
Shape: Vase shaped
Foliage: Deep green
Fall Color: Dull
This promising elm was grown from seed collected in China by plantsman Steve Bieberich. Selected on the arid plains of western Oklahoma, its foliage seems to enjoy the hottest summer sun. It has shown good resistance to the elm leaf beetle. Maturing smaller than most elm and tolerating adverse conditions, it should do well as a city tree.
DISEASE TOLERANCE: Dutch Elm Disease and Phloem Necrosis
