From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Smooth-leaved Elm Ulmus minor subsp. minor cultivar 'Sowerbyi' was described (as Ulmus nitens var. sowerbyi Moss) by Moss [2] in Cambr. Brit. Fl. 2: 90. 1914, as a smaller tree than 'Hunnybunii', the branches shorter and the upper ones very tortuous; leaves smaller and acute [1]. Frequently planted in the early 20th century, it is unlikely the tree remains in cultivation.
