Botanical nameUlmus 'Patriot'

Ulmus 'Patriot', known as the 'Patriot' elm, is a remarkable shade tree, recognized for its high resistance to Dutch elm disease and its broad, rounded, and elegant habit. Its dense, dark green foliage creates generous and refreshing shade during the summer, then turns yellow in the fall, adding seasonal appeal. Very vigorous and adaptable, it tolerates urban conditions well, including pollution, varied soils, and periods of drought once established. Its rapid growth and solid structure make it an excellent choice for large properties, parks, or avenues. Ulmus 'Patriot' is ideal for those seeking a durable, resistant tree that offers a majestic presence in the landscape.
