Ulmus parvifolia, commonly known as the Chinese elm, is a medium-sized deciduous tree reaching 40 to 50 feet with a graceful, rounded crown. It is highly prized for its distinctive exfoliating bark that reveals patches of gray, orange, and brown. The tree features small, glossy dark green leaves that provide a fine-textured appearance and often turn reddish-purple in autumn. Exceptionally hardy and resistant to Dutch elm disease, it thrives in full sun and adapts well to urban soils.
