Ornamental Trees * | Ulmus X Wingham | Elm Tree | 12L Pot | 150-180Cm | By Frank P Matthews

A New Variety Of Elm That Has Shown The Highest Resistance To Ded Of All New Hybrids Is Now Being Successfully Propagated Here In Worcestershire. This Elm Is Also An Excellent Host For The Rare Uk Native White-Letter Hairstreak Butterfly (Satyrium W-Album). Numbers Of The Butterfly Declined Dramatically In The Late 1960S (After The First Outbreak Of The Well Documented Lethal Strain Of Ded) As They Rely On Elm Trees For Breeding Habitat. The Planting Of Selected Elm Hybrids Has Helped The Butterfly To Recover In Recent Years. This Is A Worthy New Introduction To Add To The British Countryside.
