My dad had a Valley Forge elm planted in front of his house
last fall and it is looking great. It replaces an elm lost
decades ago to the Dutch elm disease. The new tree is about
12 feet tall and has completely leafed out this spring.



Fantastic. I eagerly await the day when American Elms are a favorite
boulevard tree again. And, in 2007, a blight-resistant American Chestnut
will be ready as well.
