U. × hollandica Ypreau is one of a number of cultivars arising from the crossing of the Wych Elm U. glabra with a variety of Field Elm U. minor. First identified by Poederle in Man. Arb. For. Belg. 266, 1772, as l'orme Ypreau, the tree is distinguished by its Tilia-like leaves, and was once commonly planted in the region of Ypres, Belgium. The name Ypreau has also been given to varieties of Poplar and Willow, resulting in some confusion.
