PLANT PROFILE

Ulmus parvifolia 'Todd' looks excellent when planted as a medium-sized shade or street tree in urban gardens and parks. Its glossy, dark green foliage provides dense coverage, turning yellow before leaf drop in late winter for seasonal interest. The attractive bark adds texture year-round.

Growing to 9–10 meters tall with a similar spread, it suits spaces needing broad shade and structure. 'Todd' thrives in full sun to partial shade and withstands urban pollution and varied soils, making it highly resilient for city landscapes.

Low maintenance with occasional pruning, it benefits from regular watering during dry spells. For enhanced garden impact, pair with understorey shade-loving plants to create layered and inviting outdoor spaces.
