"The American elm (Ulmus americana) is a large deciduous tree known for its vase-shaped crown and drooping branches. It is easily identified by its doubly-serrated oval leaves and spongy bark with crisscrossing ridges.

Once a common street tree, its population has been severely reduced by Dutch elm disease, but it remains a vital part of many ecosystems and is being reintroduced through disease-resistant cultivars."
