Plant of the Day
Sunday 26 June 2016

The crinkled golden foliage and upright habit of Ulmus x hollandica ‘Dampieri Aurea’ (golden elm) is in dramatic contrast with the dark evergreen hedging of Taxus baccata (yew). The Ulmus have become sentinel sculptures either side of this window in the hedging - simplicity is the key to this planting. This deciduous tree is good for a restricted space with the foliage appearing to ascend the tree in whorls, creating an amazing, tight, upright column which colours
best in a sunny position. This cultivar shows good resistance to Dutch Elm Disease.
