OriginEurope

The elm cultivar Ulmus 'Folia Variegata Pendula' was described by C. de Vos in 1867,[1] as Ulmus suberosa folia variegata pendula. Green considered it possibly one of a number of Ulmus × hollandica cultivars, arising from the crossing of Wych Elm Ulmus glabra with Field Elm Ulmus minor.

Description

[edit]

Cornelis de Vos described the cultivar as a weak-growing tree, of unsatisfactory duration, but otherwise beautiful.[2]

Cultivation

[edit]

No specimens are known to survive.
