Ulmus minor 'Folia Alba-Punctata'

The Field Elm cultivar Ulmus minor 'Folia Alba-Punctata' was first identified by C. de Vos [1] in 1867,[2] as Ulmus campestris fol. albo punctatis. The tree is assumed to be U. minor by Green.[3]

Description

C. de Vos described the tree as having leaves dotted, not flecked, with white.

Cultivation

No specimens are known to survive. An 'Album Punctatum', with "white-speckled foliage", appeared in the 1902 catalogue of the Bobbink and Atkins nursery, Rutherford, New Jersey, though this may have been the 'Punctata' more common in cultivation at that time.[4]

gollark: PotatOS is developed with tabs for technical reasons, but most of my projects use spaces.
gollark: They are wrong, then.
gollark: Really, indentation doesn't matter much. IDEs can pretty trivially convert between different types. Though admittedly tabs are easier to convert than spaces.
gollark: I respect people who don't use vertical tab indentation, but their opinion is wrong.
gollark: Bots spam much more effectively than humans.
