Ulmus parvifolia, Jacq. (U. chinensis, Pers.). Chinese Elm. Half-evergreen small tree or shrub, with spreading pubescent branches: lvs. ovate to obovate or oblong, very short-petioled and little unequal at base, acute or obtusish, subcoriaceous, simply serrate, glabrous and glossy above, pubescent beneath when young, usually glabrous at length, 3/4-2 in. long: fls. short-pedicelled, in clusters; stamens 4-5, much exserted: fr. oval to elliptic, notched at the apex, with the seed in the middle, 1/3 – 1/2 in. long. July-Sept. N. China, Japan. S.I.F. 1:37. R.H. 1909, pp. 398, 399. —Has proved hardy near Boston. The recently described U. Sieboldii, Daveau, and U. Shirasawana, Daveau, are probably only forms of this species; they are said to differ in their deciduous lvs. and the former besides by the persistent deeply fissured bark, exfoliating in the other two species and the larger fr. exceeding 1/2 in. (B.S.D. 1914:24, 25); the latter differs in the crenate-dentate lvs. with 8-10 pairs of veins and in the contracted fr. (B.S.D. 1914: 24; also S.I.F. 1:37 represents this form). ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
