Zelkova serrata, known as the Japanese Elm Tree, is a deciduous beauty prized for its graceful, vase-shaped silhouette. Growing up to 25 meters tall, it forms a spreading canopy adorned with serrated, dark green leaves that turn vibrant shades of red and orange in the fall. With a reputation for durability and resistance to pests and diseases, the Japanese Elm is a hardy and low-maintenance choice for urban planting. Its smooth bark adds winter interest to the landscape, and it is often used as a street tree or in parks for its appealing form and autumnal display.
