Wych Elm
Latin Name : Ulmus glabra
A large native tree which usually develops a dome-shaped crown, weeping a bit towards the outside. Usually covered in seed by mid-May, it reproduces itself that way, unlike other Elms which do it vegetatively.
Buds and Early Leaves
With a leaf that is rough to the touch, and confusingly like a Hazel leaf in appearance, the Wych Elm or Scottish Elm is Britain’s only truely native Elm.
