Ulmus glabra

Ulmus glabra, or wych elm, is a broad-leaved tree native to Europe and western Asia. Its large, rough leaves and winged seeds distinguish it from many other European elms.

Elm: An elm is a deciduous tree in the genus Ulmus, recognized by its serrated leaves and winged fruits. Wych elm is one species within this genus of trees.
Wind pollination: Wind pollination is the transfer of pollen between flowers by air currents. Wych elm flowers release pollen before its leaves emerge, relying on wind for transfer.
Elm wood: Elm wood is the durable, interlocking-grained timber produced by trees in the genus Ulmus. Wych elm timber has been used for furniture, tools, and construction.
European temperate forest: European temperate forest is a broad biome of deciduous and mixed woodlands across Europe. Wych elm is a characteristic tree of many temperate European woodlands.
Elm conservation: Elm conservation is the protection and restoration of elm species and their genetic diversity. Wych elm populations need protection from disease and loss of mature seed-producing trees.
Ulmaceae: Ulmaceae is a family of flowering plants that includes elms and several related genera. This family contains the genus Ulmus and places wych elm among its botanical relatives.
Seed dispersal: Seed dispersal is the movement of seeds away from the parent plant. Its winged fruits travel mainly by wind, spreading seeds beyond the parent tree.
English longbow: The English longbow is a tall self bow historically used in warfare and hunting. Wych elm wood was among the timbers used to make longbows.
Caucasus: The Caucasus is a mountain region between the Black and Caspian seas. The species' native range extends eastward to the Caucasus.
Dutch elm disease resistance: Dutch elm disease resistance is the ability of an elm to limit infection or damage from the disease. Finding resistant wych elms could support restoration within its native range.
