Bosque Elm 15 Gallon Container

Bosque Elm – 15 Gallon Container

The Bosque Elm (Ulmus parvifolia 'Bosque') is a superior cultivar of Chinese Elm, prized for its upright vase-shaped form, glossy dark green foliage, and stunning exfoliating bark. Known for its fast growth, exceptional drought tolerance, and urban toughness, this tree is ideal for both residential and commercial landscapes.

This 15-gallon container offers a well-rooted, landscape-ready tree—perfect for providing shade, structure, and seasonal interest right from the start. Bosque Elm grows with a strong central leader and symmetrical branching, making it one of the most refined and predictable elm selections available.

Its foliage turns golden yellow in fall, and its bark peels away in patches of gray, orange, and brown—offering winter interest even when leaves are gone. Bosque Elm is highly resistant to Dutch Elm Disease, Elm Leaf Beetle, and other common pests, making it a reliable, long-term investment for shade and aesthetics.
