Ulmus 'Toledo'

The elm cultivar Ulmus 'Toledo' was raised from seed collected in 1999 from a tree believed to be Ulmus minor growing in the eponymous city (39°51′51″N 4°1′30″W),[1] by researchers at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros de Montes, Universidad Politėcnica de Madrid. 'Toledo' was found to have a very high resistance to Dutch Elm Disease, on a par with, if not greater than, the hybrid cultivar 'Sapporo Autumn Gold'. In the Madrid study, the appearance of the tree was rated 2.9 / 5. [1]

Description

'Toledo' grew at a comparatively fast rate of 89 cm per annum in the trials at Puerta de Hierro, Madrid. The erect branches form an irregular crown and are devoid of corky tissue. The leaves, on 6 mm petioles, are ovate, typically acuminate at the apex, the average length and width 47 × 27 mm, the margins doubly serrate. Foliar density relative to 'Sapporo Autumn Gold' is described as 'high'. [1]

gollark: I'm actually always correct so yes.
gollark: Premature optimisation is bad, so avoid spending ages for dubiously useful speed gains. But really inefficient code in some contexts is also bad, so optimise tight loops, frequently called stuff and real time stuff.

gollark: Why not just emulate a better CPU?
