The U. × hollandica cultivar Modiolina was first described by Dumont de Courset in Bot. Cult. 3: 700, 1802, as U. campestris var. modiolina, "l'orme Tortillard". It was described as a pyramidal form of medium height with small leaves and crowded branches, and by later authors as having twisted and crowded branches with gnarled stems. A tree grown at Kew was identified by Melville as U. × hollandica.
