Urticaefolia (elm cultivar)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The European White Elm U. laevis cultivar Urticaefolia was raised by Jacques as a chance seedling in 1830, and propagated by grafting. Listed in Revue Hort. 2: 128, 1832 as U. urticaefolia, the tree was described as having deeply toothed leaves, the teeth unequal and very pointed. It was later mentioned by De Vries in Plant Breeding, 1906. The tree was never cultivated in the UK.
