    Hi Paul &#38; All,
   </div> 
   <div>
    &#160; &#160; Native Trees of Canada, 1961, Dept of Forestry lists only three elms, Ulmus americana, U. rubra (Slippery Elm) and U. thomasii (Rock Elm). In all three species the leaf blade is asymmetric on the petiole; starting lower on one side than on the other and this is least evident in rock elm. For clear ID you will need the fruit and remnants might still be found on the ground. Only U. americana is native here. Slippery Elm is sometimes planted as an ornamental I think.

      Hi All
     </div> 
     <div>
      Last evening driving along a side road in&#160; Lunenburg Co
     </div> 
     <div>
      I saw an Elm Tree - not very large - about 10 m.
     </div> 
     <div>
      When I examined the leaves they were unusual in that
     </div> 
     <div>
      the leaf proper started at different points on the leaf stem.
     </div> 
     <div>
      I&#39;m no tree expert but the best I could find was Rock Elm.
     </div> 
     <div>
      Native to Eastern North America but even Doc Roland doesn&#39;t
     </div> 
     <div>
      mention it. Anyone got any info?
     </div> 
     <div>
      Enjoy the summer. 
     </div> 
     <div>
