The elm cultivarUlmus'Nemoralis'was listed bySchelleinBeissneret al. (1903), asU. campestrisf.nemoralisHort.[1]Considered "possiblyU. carpinifolia (: minor)"by Green.[2]
Asessile-floweringUlmus nemoralis"from North America" was described byDumont de CoursetinLe botaniste cultivateur(1811),[3]and another, "des bois d'amérique", in the 1831-1832 catalogue of theAudibertbrothers' nursery at Tonelle, nearTarasconin France.[4]A Paris herbarium specimen of the latter from the 1830s does not appear to show an American species.[5]European elm cultivars were sometimes referred to by nurseries as "American", probably for marketing reasons (other examples are'Scampstoniensis',[6][7]'Vegeta',[8]'Lutescens',[9]'Canadensis',and'Nana'[10]).
Description
