| Cultivar | 'Sheyenne' |
| Origin | Plumfield Nurseries, Fremont, Nebraska, USA |
The American Elm Ulmus americana cultivar 'Sheyenne' was listed in the Wholesale Trade List of Plumfield Nursery, Fremont, Nebraska, in 1965, but without description. 'Sheyenne' is not regarded as a valid cultivar by some authorities.[1]
Description
Not available.
Cultivation
The Plumfield Nursery ceased trading circa 1980; bereft of any known resistance to Dutch elm disease it is unlikely the tree remains in cultivation in North America or beyond.
Etymology
The tree was named for the town of Sheyenne in North Dakota, itself named for the Great Plains tribe of Cheyenne (sic).
