ELM, CHINESE (Ulmus parvifolia) also known as Lacebark Elm. It has an unusual mottled bark, leaves that are smaller than those of other elm species, and good resistance to both Dutch elm disease (DED) and elm leaf beetle.

Chinese elms are used for landscaping, particularly as ornamental, shade, and street trees, and their wood is used for furniture, flooring, and crafts. They also have medicinal and edible uses, with the bark, leaves, and seeds being consumed in some cases. The tree is also cultivated for bonsai.
