The Wych Elm Ulmus glabra cultivar 'Rugosa' was described by Loudon in Arb. Frut. Brit. 3: 1898 as Ulmus montana (: glabra) var. rugosa Masters, having "dark, reddish-brown bark, cracking into short, regular pieces, very like Acer campestre; a tree of spreading growth and moderate size." Another cultivar of the same name was earlier listed in Audibert's (Tonelle, Tarascon, France) catalogue of 1817 but without description. It was later described by Hartwig & Rümpler as having somewhat folded leaves, and being pyramidal, thick and bushy [1].
