Ulmus Glabra - Evergreen Trees Direct

PLANT PROFILE

Ulmus glabra looks excellent as a large shade or avenue tree in parks, estates, and rural landscapes. Its broad, rounded canopy provides reliable shade and wind resistance, while its golden autumn foliage adds seasonal colour.

Reaching 15–25 meters tall with a 10–15 meter spread, this fast-growing tree thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. It tolerates frost, wind, pollution, and poor soils, making it a resilient choice for diverse environments.

For added landscape value, underplant with shade-loving groundcovers or spring bulbs to enrich seasonal interest. Early structural pruning helps maintain strong form and longevity.

  • Choose a full-sun location with ample space for canopy development.

  • Water deeply after planting and mulch around the base to retain moisture.
