Two Wentworth elms,previously though to have been extinct in the UK, have been found in Holyroodhouse Palace grounds in Edinburgh.

Dr Max Coleman of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh identified them and said "It is very likely these rare elms survived because Edinburgh city council have been removing diseased elms since the 1980's.
