Description
Ulmus ‘Patriot’ (Elm Tree ‘Patriot’) is a deciduous hybrid elm valued for its broad canopy, strong disease resistance, and reliable performance in full sun. This vigorous shade tree develops a symmetrical, upright oval to rounded form, typically reaching 40–50 feet tall and 35–45 feet wide, making it well-suited for streets, parks, and residential lawns.
Glossy, dark green leaves form a dense summer canopy that provides ample shade. In fall, foliage transitions to warm yellow tones before leaf drop, adding seasonal interest. Small spring flowers are inconspicuous and followed by flat samaras. Its improved resistance to Dutch elm disease and elm leaf beetle enhances long-term landscape reliability.
Ideal for urban environments and large planting areas, Ulmus ‘Patriot’ combines classic elm character with modern durability and strong structural form.
