The Field Elm cultivar Ulmus minor 'Viminalis Pulverulenta' (:'powdery'), also known as 'Viminalis Variegata',[1] a variegated form of U. minor 'Viminalis',[2][3] was first mentioned by Dieck, (Zöschen, Germany) in 1885 as U. scabra viminalis pulverulenta Hort., but without description.[4] Nursery, arboretum, and herbarium specimens confirm that this cultivar was sometimes regarded as synonymous with U. minor 'Viminalis Marginata'[5] (see Cultivation), first listed in 1864, which is variegated mostly on the leaf margin. It is likely, however, that 'Pulverulenta' was the U. 'Viminalis Variegata', Variegated Twiggy-branched elm, that was listed and described by John Frederick Wood, F.H.S., in The Midland Florist and Suburban Horticulturist 1847 and 1851, pre-dating both Kirchner and Dieck.[2][3] Wood did not specify the nature of the variegation.
