Very similar to the species.[2] A specimen planted in 1978 at the Sir Harold Hillier Gardens in England had attained a height of 8 m by 2002.

- 'Hansen' at Hillier Arboretum
Cultivation
The tree's current status in North America is not known; at least three mature specimens survive in the UK. Significantly, it is not listed in Green's digest of elm cultivar names published in 1964, suggesting a rather belated introduction to commerce.[3]

gollark: Oh, and a library interface.
gollark: Well, I would want a pacman-like CLI, probably configurable repos, multiple files in a package, good package updating support, and... other stuff?
gollark: If CC had symlinks, which it doesn't without a ton of FS hackery, you could make a busybox-type thing.
gollark: I might actually do that for PotatOS Hexahedron™, the upcoming probably never™ lightweight potatOS version.
