Origin | US |
'Elsmo' has been described by one supplier as a graceful, round-headed tree often with pendulous branchlets. The leaves are dark green, changing to yellowish to reddish purple in autumn. The bark is a typical mottled combination of grey, green, orange, and brown.
The species and its cultivars are highly resistant, but not immune, to Dutch elm disease, and unaffected by the Elm Leaf Beetle Xanthogaleruca luteola.[2]
The tree is not known to be cultivated beyond North America.
