What is the Chinese elm?
Chinese Elm z ulmus capifolia is an elm species origin from Asia. It has been exported worldwide for use in landscaping and as a result it is widespread. Many garden supplies are borne by Chinese elm seedlings or can be ordered on the basis of request and Chinese elms can also be ordered directly through kindergartens that specialize in ornamental trees for landscaping. Chinese elms have roughly oval oval leaves with leather texture and rich green color and their gray-green bark naturally shed as the tree ages, and reveals layers of brown to cinnamon bark below it. The distinguishing appearance of the ripening of the Chinese ELMS explains another common name for the tree, "lace elm".

Chinese Elms can cope with urban smog, generally poor air quality, poor ground and indifferent watering.They are also naturally resistant to many insect pests and resist Dutch disease, a tree disease that has spoiled many urban trees in North America.
