The Green Vase Zelkova is a superior form of the Japanese zelkova, and an admirable substitute for the American elm. It is completely unaffected by Dutch elm disease, and it has the same high crown and grandeur of the elm. It forms a strong trunk with many branches rising from its top, forming an upright vase shape and growing to 45 feet tall within 20 years or so. The attractive leaves turn glowing orange in fall. This tree is perfect for a shade tree on a large lawn or for creating an avenue along a driveway or property line.

  • Beautiful upright vase-shaped shade tree
  • Excellent, disease-free substitute for the American elm
  • Beautiful glowing orange fall coloring
  • Good cold and drought resistance
  • Much faster growing than other varieties – a mature tree sooner

The Green Vase Zelkova should be planted in full sun, in soil that is well-drained and rich. It tolerated clay soils and urban conditions, and once established it is drought resistant too. It has no pest or disease problems and grows easily in most locations, with good resistance to cold and heat. Young trees should be mulched to conserve moisture and enrich the soil.
