Ulmus
Cultivar'Folia Rubra'
OriginBelgium

The elm cultivar Ulmus 'Folia Rubra' was first listed as Ulmus campestris foliis rubra in the Louis de Smet (Ghent) catalogue of 1877. An U. campestris fol. rubris Hort. was distributed by the Späth nursery, Berlin, in the 1890s and early 1900s.[1]

Considered "probably Ulmus carpinifolia" (: minor) by Green.[2]

Description

'Folia Rubra' was later described as having small leaves with a reddish-green tinge.[1]

Cultivation

No specimens are known to survive. One tree was planted in 1897 as U. campestris fol. rubris at the Dominion Arboretum, Ottowa, Canada.[3] Three specimens were supplied by the Späth nursery to the RBGE in 1902 as U. campestris fol. rubris, and may possibly survive in Edinburgh as it was the practice of the Garden to distribute trees about the city (viz. the Wentworth Elm);[4] the current list of Living Accessions held in the Garden per se does not list the plant.[5]

Synonymy

  • Ulmus campestris foliis rubra: Louis de Smet (Ghent) catalogue 1877.
  • Ulmus campestris fol. rubris: Späth (Berlin), catalogue 1903.[1]
