Description:
Everclear® Elm is set apart from other Lacebark Elms by its distinctly narrow habit. The growth habit is much taller than wide, at about 40' tall by 20' wide, while other Ulmus parvifolia will often grow wider than high. It makes a good street tree due to the uncommonly narrow head with tight branch angles that keep the branches clear of traffic and prevent them from growing straight into buildings. Thus the name Everclear® Elm! It also makes a stately selection for small lawns or large courtyards. www.everclearelm.com
