Protected Series:
Zone: 5FRONTIER HYBRID ELM
The 'Frontier' Elm develops a vase or pyramidal shade that is resistant to Dutch elm disease. Smooth, grey-green bark and beautiful red and purple fall color. Excellent choice for urban planting under power lines and in parking lots due to its shorter mature height. The 'Frontier' thrives in full sun and adapts to both dry and moist locations. It is not soil particular as to type or pH and is able to handle environmental salt. This is a fast growing, reliable, low maintenance shade tree with no significant negative characteristics. Derived from a crossing of the European Field Elm - Ulmus minor with the Chinese Elm - Ulmus parvifolia.
