Ulmus – an easy tree to identify - the Ulmus (Elm) - has smooth oval-shaped leaves, with serrated edges that form alternately along the stems – these smallish leaves give the large Elm tree its soft appearance.

Elms are attractive as a specimen tree, to line a driveway or as a landscape accent tree; they offer shade and allow dappled light to filter to the ground below. These sun-loving trees are deciduous.
