As far as the Zelkova bit -- Iris is undoubtedly right. It Is
NOT a Zelkova, it is a Chinese elm, probably one of the cultivars
of Ulmus parvifolia. I'd forgotten that these are often
(dishonestly) imported to the US as Zelkova species because of
certain import restrictions on some Ulmus species (because of
Dutch elm disease, I'm told).
