From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The American Elm Ulmus americana cultivar 'Star' was a selection made by the Plumfield Nursery, Fremont, Nebraska, circa 1945, cloned from a local tree of compact growth, with a much-branched, globose crown [1]. 'Star' was first marketed by the Plumfield Nursery in 1957, however the company ceased trading circa 1980 and it is unlikely the tree remains in cultivation. 'Star' is not known to have been introduced to Europe or Australasia.
