  1. One of the most reactive and informative forums I have ever joined. I am much wiser now thank you. I will ask around amongst the farmers if any other Elms have been spotted as I certainly have not seen any. Hopefully mine is a lucky one off and could survive. Of course it's not for me but the following generations. For further clarification here is an image of the stem.....
  2. Thanks for all the replies. This is in West Cork, Ireland. It is an old hedge with mature holly and lots of new Ash which are weeds here. I remember Elm from years ago and have not seen one recently so this really stuck out. It is several small "trunks" coming up about 4 feet tall. As we were moving the hedge for a new access I had the digger move this to a safe place. It survived the winter so will be looked after to hopefully avoid any Dutch Elm disease. Of course Ash die back is going to be devastating here as Ash are all over the country but none of my saplings have any sign of it although a couple of the very mature specimens have some dead branches so I suspect the worst.
  3. I found a sapling growing in my hedge and thought it was an Elm but I am not sure? Can you guys help me. Thanks
