The main branches can easily be 20 feet or more up the trunk There is something special about walking or playing under a Zelkova, you feel the presence of the tree but it does not interfere with you in any way. A great tree for lining a driveway. Excellent shade, lawn and park tree. Widely adaptable - a very good urban tree. Hardy to Zone 5 Russet fall color, bark peels and flakes giving a mottled appearance. |
