I just got this elm. I was told it was a Cork Bark Elm.


I would treat it like a Chinese Elm. However, as far north as you are and
having just gotten the tree I would wait until danger of frost had passed to
leave it out overnight. In the fall I would let it experience enough cold to drop
its leaves and then give it winter protection. The winter temperature would
need to stay near 32 F to keep the tree dormant.
