Notes :
The European White Elm is a beautiful Elm Species native of Central Europe. It grows spontaneously in the plains, where it used to be the landmark species, but can grow up to 500 m altitude. It thrives when growing in full sunlight. It loves humid soils, as long as well drained. It is however a very rustic species, that can adapt to different soil and temperature conditions. Unfortunately, like other Ulmus species, the European White Elm is also vulnerable to the deadly Graphiosis disease.
