Ulmus ? I know of only one English elm (procera) left in the midlands. Beautiful tree which stood while all around they died.

Thats good news, there are still a lot of green elms up my way, mainly weeping. Here is one that is still un effected. I was told it was a Cornish Elm?

I've got a landscape feature with big gaps in, mature elms would fit nicely - might be able to thin out the beech and turkey whilst I'm on!

It was a painting of an elm tree at dusk by Coulson that probably had a lot to do with the buisness I'm in now. I was recently shown around a church (grave) yard in West Cornwall and was shown a "new disease resistant" Elm that although in Cornwall, is NOT a Cornish Elm. I was quite excited to see this beautiful tree and am intending to find out more and source some; will update...
