Description

This native elm is generally not used as a landscape tree because of its coarse texture and susceptibility to elm diseases.

Ulmus rubra, commonly called slippery elm, is a medium sized, coarse-textured, somewhat weedy, deciduous tree that typically grows to 40-60, (less frequently to 100, ) tall with a vase-shaped to broad-rounded crown.

It is distinguished by its downy twigs, red-hairy buds (particularly noticable in winter) and slimy red inner bark (rubra meaning red).
