i've never grown an elm before, or collected one for that matter. this year i dug up a few just to try it out. im hoping that they can be left out all winter with minimal protection. there are a lot of these growing around here so these can be practice trees if they need to be.
here is a picture of one of them. the trunk has scars all over it, not sure why, very little taper, some very subtle movement, and many branches seem to emerge at the same point on the trunk.
the collected trees have been recovering and pushing out new growth. does anyone have any experience with these? what could have caused all the scars? is it okay to have seven branches come from the same hight on the trunk? and what about winter protection?? im finding very little information on the web.
