New Horizon Elm

New Horizon Elm is a hybrid Elm (Ulmus japonica x Ulmus pumila) with a compact, upright, pyramidal habit and dense canopy. It becomes a broader pyramid as it ages. Inconspicuous, small green flowers appear in early spring before the leaves emerge. Dark green, serrated foliage remains clean throughout the season until turning yellow in fall. The bark develops a gray, ridged texture. This hybrid touts excellent resistance to Dutch Elm Disease, Verticillium Wilt, Elm leaf miners, and black leaf spot.
