The American Elm Ulmus americana 'Vase' was listed in Edition 5 of the 1949 Plant Buyers Guide. No details of provenance, or description, of the tree are available, and its status as a true cultivar is uncertain. Green [1] regarded the tree as "..neither clonal nor a true cultivar". It is not known whether 'Vase' remains in cultivation, nor whether it was introduced to Europe or Australasia.
