'Hertfordensis Latifolia'
Origin
England

The cultivar 'Hertfordensis Latifolia' was mentioned (as Ulmus campestris hertfordensis latifolia) by Boulger in Gardener's Chronicle II. 12: 298 1879, but without description. Loudon earlier described it as "the broad-leaved Hertfordshire Elm" in Arb. Frut. Brit. 3: 1396 1838. Considered "probably U. carpinifolia" (: minor) by Green [1], the tree is almost certainly lost to cultivation.
