Ulmus 'Planeroides'

The elm cultivar Ulmus 'Planeroides' [:Planera-like elm] was described by Carrière in the Revue horticole, 1875.[1] It was considered "possibly Ulmus carpinifolia" [:U. minor ] by Green.[2]

OriginFrance?

Not to be confused with Späth's U. montana viminalis which, though "also distributed under the name Planera aquatica",[3] has osier-like leaves, Planera being the old name for Zelkova, a close relative of elm with willow-like leaves.[4]

Description

The tree was described as having leaves like Planera aquatica.[2]

Pests and diseases

Most field elm clones are susceptible to Dutch elm disease.

Cultivation

No specimens are known to survive.

Putative specimen

A pruned elm with Planera-like leaves, possibly the cultivar 'Planeroides', stands in Stanford Avenue, Brighton.[5]

gollark: This isn't really ideal, as I think I'm duplicating data a bit (timestamps), updating a page involves more work, and more importantly the `revisions` thing doesn't have any relevant information beyond what's available from `pages`.
gollark: Basically, when there's a new revision, the apiosystem reads the current content out of `pages`, compresses it, generates and serializes the metadata, then shoves in a row into `revisions`.
gollark: As of now I do this:```sqlCREATE TABLE pages ( title TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE, content TEXT NOT NULL, updated INTEGER NOT NULL, created INTEGER NOT NULL);CREATE TABLE revisions ( page TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES pages(title), timestamp INTEGER NOT NULL, meta BLOB NOT NULL, -- contains revision metadata and type -- ChangeContent { size } is the only one here for now full_data BLOB -- contains optionally compressed text);```but it is not ideal.
gollark: Yes. Please hold on while I post the schæma.
gollark: Yes.
