Origin
Germany

The cultivar 'Globosa' was first described (as Ulmus campestris globosa Behnsch ) in the Späth nursery catalogue of 1892-93 as having an uninterrupted, very dense, strongly branched, globose crown with firm, coriaceous shining leaves, but very different from 'Umbraculifera'. Considered "probably Ulmus carpinifolia (: minor)" by Green [1], the tree is not known to remain in cultivation.
