Ulmus 'Berardii'

Infobox Cultivar | name = "Ulmus"
cultivar = 'Berardii'
origin = Metz, France
The cultivar 'Berardii' was raised from seeds collected by Simon-Louis from large trees growing on the ramparts at Metz. As with 'Koopmannii', 'Berardii' is treated in some east European treatises as a cultivar of the Siberian Elm "Ulmus pumila". Green, who had examined dried specimens of the plant, also considered it "as possibly a form of "U. pumila" Green, P. S. (1964). Registration of cultivar names in Ulmus. "Arnoldia", Vol. 24. Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University. [http://arnoldia.arboretum.harvard.edu/pdf/articles/1605.pdf] ] .
