Details
Cultivar	'Variegata'
Origin	Europe

Ulmus minor subsp. minor 'Variegata' is a variegated Smooth-leaved Elm cultivar first described by Wesmael [3] in Bull. Fed. Soc. Hort. Belg. 1862: 390, 1863.^[1]

Description

The tree's foliage is randomly blotched and speckled with creamy white, the colour of the leaves on the same tree ranging from almost completely cream to totally green.^{[2] [3]} A variety in which the blotching and margination are more silver than cream is sometimes listed as Ulmus minor 'Argenteo-variegata' ^[4] (not to be confused with the silver-margined English elm cultivar, Ulmus procera 'Argenteo-Variegata').

Pests and diseases

The cultivar is as susceptible to Dutch elm disease as the species.

Cultivation

The tree remains in commercial cultivation in Europe, and a number of mature specimens survive in North America and Australasia.
