Lacebark elm sources
Does anyone out there know of a retail source for some of the more
cold-hardy lacebark elms (a.k.a Chinese elms)? I'm specificially looking for Ulmus parvifolia 'Pathfinder' or 'Ohio', though any small/medium-sized lacebarks that will be happy in Zone 6a would be helpful. For once, Google's not finding what I want. I found a few places selling lacebark elms, but they either don't specify the cultivar or they've only got the larger varieties. (Wait, is it a cultivar or a variety? I can never figure that out...) I'm looking for a tree that I can plant in the 8-foot wide strip of grass between the sidewalk and the street, so I don't want something that's going to get 80 feet tall and tear up the sidewalk. If anybody's planted a lacebark elm (or any other disease resistant elms), I'd love to hear about it. If I could find a place for it, I'd love a nice big Princeton or Valley Forge elm too. Oh, I'm near Cincinnati, Ohio, so if by some weird chance you know of a local source, that would work also. I haven't lived here that long, so I'm not very familiar with the area tree nurseries. Thanks! - Edson |
