Planting a New Elm Tree

New Elm

This photo is of a young American Elm tree (foreground) and Peach tree that we planted in Fall 2019. They’ve been established and thriving for just a year now.

The American Elm is a Princeton variety. It is has the highest resistance to Dutch Elm Disease of any surviving Elm varietal. We’re hoping it will continue to thrive and maybe help in a small way with repopulating American cities with majestic Elms again.
