If you want that distinct vase-like shape of the traditional elm tree well look no further, the Accolade Elm is very similar to the traditional one and is resistant to Dutch Elm disease.
A fast-growing tree that will provide good shade to the landscape.
Nice round vase shape. Beautiful golden yellow fall color.
If pruning is desired, do so when the tree is dormant and no sap can bleed from the tree.
