Ulmus glabra 'Latifolia Aurea' | |
Species: | Ulmus glabra |
Cultivar: | 'Latifolia Aurea' |
Origin: | Europe |
The Wych Elm cultivar Ulmus glabra 'Latifolia Aurea' was listed by Schelle in Beissner et al, Handbuch der Laubholz-Benennung (1903), as Ulmus glabra Miller latifolia aurea, but without description.[1] [2] In the Netherlands in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, however, Ulmus montana latifolia aurea was a synonym of the wych cultivar 'Lutescens',[3] and Green reclassified Schelle's 'Latifolia aurea' as a form of U. glabra Hudson.
Not available, but the name suggests a broad leaf with a yellow coloration.
No specimens labelled 'Latifolia Aurea' are known to survive, though 'Lutescens' remains in cultivation.
