Origin | England |
Loudon's 'Australis' is not to be confused with Henry's U. campestris 'Australis', a tall southern European field elm or hybrid cultivar with an oval leaf and longer petiole.[3]
Loudon said the variety had "rather smaller leaves, and a more pendulous habit, than the species", but did "not appear to be different in any other respect".
See under Ulmus glabra.
No specimens are known to survive, though wych elms of a similar type sometimes occur among avenue and park plantings in Edinburgh.
