I've seen some places this year where Elm trees are being sold. Maybe I'm missing something but with dutch elm disease it doesn't seem like it'd be worth planting elm trees

They've bred that suseptibility out of the species with GMO's.

There are still many small elms, but most don't get very big. Every so often I see a big tree that appears to be doing well. Usually they are by themselves. Don't know if they are resistant to Dutch elm disease, separated enough from the population to get passed over, or a combo of both. Maybe they're just lucky All (And I mean All) the slippery ((This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)) elm around my area died out about 3 years ago. Not a live elm to be found anywhere. Not sure if some new elm disease or parasite has arrived in the area ? w

Saw on the news where a lot of trees of various species are dying due to the drought the past couple of years. The drought has compromised the tree's immunity from certain diseases. I have a large dead oak in my yard that seemed healthy several years ago. All my elms are either dead or dying.

I guess the Elm Zigzag Sawfly is killing off our elms in northern New York. If it's not one thing, it's another !!! w

We have 10 or so of the new Elm varieties in our yard. We planted most of them around 10-15 years ago. If I remember right we planted Accolade, Pioneer and Homestead elms.

We have a lot of the Chinese elm trees in our area. They make me hate the word elm. For sure. We have them up at the lake in our backyard. They are a nuisance and should be classified an invasive species.

We have 3 types of native elm trees in Ohio. There are some naturally occurring American Elms that are resistant to Dutch Elm Disease. There are lots of Slippery Elm trees, so called because the bark easily comes off of the wood. The Slippery Elms are also called Red Elms because of the beautiful red wood. I've turned the wood on a lathe and you can make beautiful pieces with it. The wood and cut bark smell good and sweet. The Rock Elms, mostly grow in rocky parts of the state, like South East, Ohio. I've never seen one in my end of the state except for one I dug up and transplanted to my mom's yard.
There are nonnative, Siberian Elms, that have become established in Ohio too.

We have a lot of the Chinese elm trees in our area. They make me hate the word elm. Seth they grow well out here and take the extreme heat, cold and wind. If you see a house it has Elms in the yard. The old Russian elms are our main firewood. The older houses that have Chinese elms in the yard are a nightmare to mow. I swear each tree drops a thousand dead branches.
