New Horizon Elm is a fast-growing deciduous tree with a symmetrical vase-like to pyrimdal crown.  The boldy textured glossy dark green leaves turn red to gold in fall.  Insignificant fall flowers give way to papery wing-like seed pods.  Grows best with full sun and rich well-drained soils.  New Horizon has exceptional resistance to dutch elm disease and leaf wilt.
