Introduction
This report has been prepared to assist in the identification of street trees in Burra
and their management in respect to suitability of species and replacement if
appropriate. It provides recommendations for each street and a list of suitable
species that can be trialled in addition to those currently occurring.
The report was prepared by Oxigen Pty Ltd, Landscape Architects for the Regional
Council of Goyder. The plant descriptions are taken from “Shrubs and Trees for
Australian Gardens”, by E.E. Lord, “Encyclopaedia Botanica” and “Eucalypts of
South Australia”. The photographs of the existing street trees were taken in
November 2005.
HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
Burra’s early settlers were quick to clear native vegetation in the district to provide
timber for building and firewood for the Burra Mines. Cleared land also opened up
pastures for grazing and arable land for agriculture. Once the layout of Burra and
adjacent townships were established, gardens and street trees were planted to
replace the tree cover, most often using species that were thought to offer a greater
degree of amenity than the native trees they replaced.
The most common trees planted in streets during the early days were Elms,
Planes, White Cedars and White Acacia (Robinia pseudoacacia), trees which
were also commonly planted as street trees in Adelaide. Other trees such as
Peppers (Brachychiton species), Norfolk Island Hibiscus (Langunaria patersonii),
and Aleppo Pine (Pinus halapensis) were also commonly planted.
Whilst many of these trees have grown successfully in Burra, some species such
as the Elms have been gradually removed because of their size and suckering
habit and other species such as Aleppo Pine (Pinus halapensis) are no longer
used because of their classification as an environmental weed.
CURRENT USE
The majority of existing street planting in Burra consists of native trees although
these are often interspersed with exotic trees either as individual specimens a short
sections of the same species. The most common native trees are the White Cedar
(Melia azederach) and Kurrajong (Brachychiton populneus). Other less common
native trees include Sheoak (Allocasuarina verticillata), Native Pine (Callitris
preissii), Silky Oak (Grevillea robusta), and Norfolk Island Hibiscus (Lagunaria
patersonii).
3
Introduction
A variety of exotic trees have also been planted as street trees, including:
Carob (Ceratonia siliqua)
European Hackberry (Celtis australis)
Pencil Pine (Cupressus sempervirens stricta)
Common Ash (Fraxinus excelsior)
Golden Rain Tree (Koelreuteria paniculata)
Plane Tree (Platanus x acerifolia)
Almond (Prunus amygdalus)
Purple-leaved Plum (Prunus cerasifera ‘Nigra’)
English Oak (Quercus robur)
Pepper Tree (Schinus molle)
English Elm (Ulmus procera)
OBJECTIVES
Additional street tree planting is one way to have an immediate effect on the
appearance and amenity of the public realm in the town. Where streets are wide
and traffic volumes low, the opportunity exists to plant large trees in scale with the
street, providing shade and increasing amenity.
The conditions under which street trees are required to grow are usually harsh.
Constraints to successful establishment of street trees are:
•
overhead and underground services which restrict species selection and place
physical construction on tree growth
•
•
lack of water to the tree’s root zone
hard surfaces, such as paving surrounding trees, which may result in
compaction of soil, lack of water penetration and reduced aeration of the root
zone
•
microclimate factors such as wind, temperature and sunlight
Good tree form and health are dependent upon:
•
adequate tree pits and the use of correct soil mixtures
•
provision of irrigation, either automatic or form water trucks
•
protection from vandalism and accidental damage from vehicles
•
avoiding compaction around the base of the trees and preferably within the
drip zone
•
use of root control systems where required
4
Introduction
The following are objectives for street tree planting in the town:
1.
Reinforce a hierarchy in the selection of species appropriate to the scale and
use of the street.
2.
Generally provide continuity and consistency along the whole length of the
street. Priority should be given to establishing a single character along the
length of a street rather than breaking streets into a number of precincts with
different characters.
3.
Reinforce a South Australian character in the choice of species, responding to
the cultural significance of native and introduced species.
4.
Encourage diversity in species selection to reinforce street identity and
promote ecological diversity.
5.
Reinforce existing street tree planting by infilling were possible and replacing
poor specimens.
6.
Conserve historical trees and avenues of trees.
7.
Locate street trees considering the needs of overhead and underground
services, vehicle sight-lines and in association with street lighting, street
furniture and paving.
A co-ordinated approach to tree planting provides environmental and social benefits
to the town. These include:
•
The strengthening of the framework planting of trees in the town with their
associated benefits of amenity, environmental and ecological values
•
A co-ordinate and consistent approach to street tree planting, with greater
predictability in capital expenditure and maintenance requirements
A successful street tree planting programme requires a commitment to:
•
allocation of funds for both capital and maintenance programmes
•
adoption of best horticultural practice in the propagation and placing of trees
•
implementation of an effective monitoring programme, together with adequate
maintenance procedures

Introduction
PRINCIPLES
Context
1.
The hierarchy of streets in the town should be reinforced by selection of
species appropriate to the scale and type of the street.
2.
Generally, continuity and consistency along the whole length of a street should
be provided in preference to precincts with may cut across streets.
Placement
1.
Placement of street trees should be determined in relationship with
underground and overhead services, adjacent land uses, including heritage
buildings and other significant features, views, buildings and driveway
entrances, street and pedestrian lighting, and other street furniture elements.
2.
3.
Placement must consider safe vehicle sight-lines.
Street trees should preferably be located in footpaths at least 600 mm behind
the kerb.
4.
Where street trees are planted in road carriageways, trees should be protected
by bollards.
Species Selection
1.
The criteria for selection of street trees includes an ability to:
•
grow under harsh environmental conditions
•
attain natural form and stature without interference (e.g. major pruning)
•
attain a clear trunk of at least two meters from the ground
•
have a branching habit that extends upwards from the trunk
•
have a deep rooting system that will not lift kerbs and paving
•
perform reliably and consistently in terms of form (shape and size)
•
not produce hard or squashy fruit, poisonous or allergic parts, or spines or
thorns
•
not drop limbs unexpectedly or frequently
6
Introduction
2.
The selection in individual streets depends on:
•
scale - width of the street and height of the buildings on either side
•
use – related to use of adjacent buildings, access requirements and quantity of
pedestrian and vehicle traffic
•
availability – not all trees are available from nurseries at all times and
preference should be given to species which are readily available as semimature stock and at minimum cost.
The following tree species have proved successful in gardens in Burra and are
recommended, additional as suitable species, for street tree planting in Burra:
Wide Streets (Large trees > 15 m)
Indian Bean Tree (Catalpa bignonioides)
Atlas Cedar (Cedrus atlantica)
Yellow Gum (Eucalyptus leucoxylon subsp. leucoxylon)
Peppermint Box (Eucalyptus odorata)
Blue Jacaranda Tree (Jacaranda mimosaefolia)
White Acacia (Robinia pseudoacacia ‘Frisia’)
Chinese Elm (Ulmus parvifolia)
Narrow Streets (Small trees 4 – 8 m)
Quorn Mallee (Eucalyptus porosa)
Street tree planting should also not preclude specific design solutions such as the
use of Palms (e.g. Phoenix canariensis), Norfolk Island Pines (Araucaria
heterophylla), Moreton Bay Figs (Ficus rubiginosa), and flowering and pleached
trees where these can be grown successfully and may lead to distinctive and
memorable streets.

Drooping Sheoak
Description
The Drooping Sheoak is a small tree, with a dense
crown and weeping branches. The tree is an
evergreen with needle-like branchlets that serve the
function of leaves. The true leaves are tiny
triangular scales. Trees in excellent condition show
long, pendulous branchlets of delicate, grey-green
foliage with a horizontally-striped trunk. These slowgrowing trees become rounded balls of fine foliage
with age (although coarser than other sheoaks), but
as young trees they can appear very ungainly and
sparse. In containers of whatever size, and until the
tree is over 5m tall, A. verticillata looks poorlygrown, but this appearance will change with age.
Mature Height
It grows to a height of 5-10 m with a spread of 5 m.
Origin
Australia (South Australia, Victoria, New South
Wales, Tasmania)
Uses
Whole tree
Excellent for shade, windbreaks, firewood or
specimen.
Notes
It is drought, frost, wind and salt resistant.
Other names:
(Casuarina stricta, C. verticillata)
Branch with seeds
Kurrajong
Description
These evergreen trees are typically stout, pyramidal
when young, overall narrow shape growing wider
with age. They have glossy-green foliage which
gives an attractive glittery effect in wind. The flowers
are bell-shaped and whitish in colour with the inner
flower tube streaked purple-brown. Cultivated
hybrids involving B. populneus display pink or red
flowers. Seeds are borne within woody, boat-shaped
fruit 1-7 cm long and are surrounded by fine hairs
that can cause skin and eye irritation.
Mature Height
It grows to a height of 20 m with a spread of 5 m.
Origin
Australia (New South Wales, National Territory,
Victoria and Queensland)
Uses
Brachychiton populneus is widely used as street
trees in Australia and overseas.
Whole tree
Ground-up seeds can be brewed into a coffee
substitute or added to bread. The swollen, carrot-like
taproot is a nutritious and agreeable vegetable and
the gum exudate is also edible.
Notes
The species Brachychiton populneus has two
subspecies that differ in adult leaf shape.

Callitris preissii
Native Pine
Description
Callitris preissii is a tree or shrub with erect or
spreading branches. It also can be a stunted,
irregularly branched tree which is sometimes
several-stemmed, occasionally glaucous. The
leaves are 2-4 mm long. Its female cones are found
solitary or several together. Often the clustered
fruiting branchlets remain on the branches long after
maturity. They are ovoid to depressed-globose, 2035 mm diam.; columella usually short and thick
Mature Height
Origin
Australia (New South Wales, South Australia,
Victoria, Western Australia)
Uses
It is a large attractive useful tree with rich green
foliage.
Notes
Whole tree
Aborigines on the Murray River made a combined
canoe pole and fish spear nearly 4 m long from the
wood of the tree, called by them Maroong. The resin
was also a cement for fastening barbs to spears
Cones and leaves
14
Celtis australis
European Hackberry
Description
European Hackberry is a deciduous tree with
smooth, light grey, somewhat warty bark and a wide,
broad, rounded canopy, making it a good shade
tree. The sharply toothed leaves are dark greygreen throughout the year fading to a pale yellow
before falling in autumn. The flowers are small and
greenish and not ornamentally important. Tiny,
round, dark purple fruits hang in short clusters and
are extremely popular with birds and other wildlife.
Mature Height
Origin
Mediterranean region
Uses
It is recommended for buffer strips around parking
lots or for median strip plantings along highways;
reclamation plant; shade tree; residential street tree.
Notes
Whole tree
The berries are hard and people can roll and slip on
them when they drop onto sidewalks and other hard
surfaces.
Leaves and fruits
Carob
15
Ceratonia siliqua
Description
The Carob is a compact growing, little tree with
attractive, shiny dark green and compound leaves.
The clusters of small dark red flowers are close in
on the branches. Only the female trees produce
brown leathery pods which are used for a variety of
products. It grows very well in dry areas and
produces a beautiful wood with a pinkies hue.
Mature Height
Origin
Mediterranean region
Uses
The Carob is a useful tree for the inland, being
highly resistant to drought. It also makes an
excellent hedge. Its pods have a high economic
worth, especially for fodder, being rich in sugar and
protein.
Notes
The sex of the trees seems variable, male and
female generally being distinct at both being
necessary for a crop. Only the female trees produce
the brown leathery fruit.
Whole tree
The trees can become older than 100 years.
Fruits and leafs
16
Cupressus sempervirens stricta
Pencil Pine
Description
This Pencil Pine grows in a compact, very narrow
and strongly upright shape. Branches grow upright,
with dark-green, scale-like leaves. Because of the
strong root system it is able to endure warm and dry
conditions. It is fast growing when it is young,
forming attractive spires of dark evergreen. The
persistent cones are shining green, ripening redbrown to dull gray with age. They are round shaped
and measure 4 cm across, with winged seeds.
Mature Height
Origin
Mediterranean region and southern Europe
Uses
The tree is very useful for architectural and
landscape effects of all kind, porches and entrances,
avenues and tub plants.
Pruned and shaped Pencil Pine
Notes
The natural lifespan of a Pencil Pine is several
centuries.
C. sempervirens is drought and frost tender.
Branch with cones
17
Fraxinus excelsior
Common Ash
Description
The Common Ash is a tall, handsome tree. It is
readily distinguished by its light-grey bark (smooth in
younger trees, rough and scaly in older specimens)
and by its large compound leaves, divided into four
to eight pairs of lance-shaped leaflets, tipped by a
single one, an arrangement which imparts a light
feathery arrangement to the foliage. In April or May,
according to season, and before the appearance of
the leaves, the black flower-buds on the previous
year's shoots expand into small dense clusters of a
greenish white or purplish colour, some of the
minute flowers having purple stamens, others pistil
only, and some both, but all being devoid of petals
and sepals, which, owing to the pollen being windborne, are not needed as protection, or as attraction
to insect visitors.
Whole tree
Mature Height
Origin
Europe and Asia Minor
Uses
It is a popular garden and Park tree.
Leafs

Grevillea robusta
Silky Oak
Description
G. robusta is a large evergreen tree with a straight
trunk and moderately spreading crown. The fern like
leaves, dark green above with silvery undersides are
partly shed just before the branches are almost
hidden by the masses of long, golden-yellow blooms
which appear in late spring. The brownish-black,
leathery follicles fruit which is about 20 mm long,
contains one or two flat, winged seeds.
Mature Height
Origin
Its original distribution is a coastal region of southern
Queensland down to northern New South Wales as far inland as the western slopes of the Great
Dividing range.
Uses
It has beautiful timber, used in furniture making.
Whole tree
Notes
Grow in a well-drained, slightly dry, and neutral to
acidic mix in full sun. Tolerant of dry conditions, it
does best with a warm dry summer.
Flowers with seed
19
Koelreuteria paniculata
Golden Rain Tree
Description
Golden Rain Tree is a fast-growing, deciduous tree.
At maturity, it has a rounded crown, with a spread
equal to or greater than the height. It has compound
leaves that give it an overall lacy appearance. The
leaves turn yellow before falling. The bark is light
gray-brown and becomes furrowed with age. Golden
rain tree is perhaps most striking in the fall with its
large clusters of showy yellow flowers. These are
followed by 2" red-purple seed pods, which are
equally dramatic. The fruit is a papery threecompartment, bladder-like structure full of seeds.
Mature Height
Origin
China
Uses
Whole tree
In cooler zones, use as a free-standing tree where it
can be seen in all its glory. It is also good as a small
shade tree where space is limited. Golden rain tree
should be used more often as a street and park tree.
Notes
In warm climates seed is produced in great
quantities and there are always seedlings beneath a
mother tree. The tree is invasive under these
conditions. Golden rain tree is best grown in cooler
zones where the shorter growing season prevents
formation of seed.
Golden Rain Tree is only moderately successful as
a street tree in Burra.
Leaves with last years seed pods
20
Description
Rather a surprising spectacle when the symmetrical
pyramided shaped tree is in bloom in midsummer
and covered with flowers which are in colours
grading through rose-pinks to lilac. The flowers
distinctly resemble the hibiscus, the stamens
projecting from a central column, and indeed the
tree is of the same family. The leaves are dull green,
very pale underneath, and about 2 inches long. The
seed capsules open to reveal five compartments
and should be handled with care because of the fine
sharp hairs.
Mature Height
Origin
Australia (Norfolk Island, Lord Howe Island, coastal
Queensland, New South Wales)
Uses
It has useful white timber, and is a good beach tree.
Notes
Whole tree
It is generally found on shallow limestone soils.
Whilst this tree grows successfully in Burra, some
people are allergic to the fine hairs in the seed
capsules, and the continuance of its use as a street
tree is not recommended.
Flower
21
Melia azedarach
White Cedar
Description
The fast-growing tree has an umbrella shaped habit.
Its leaves are large and double-compound (having
leaflets on leaflets). The leaves have long stems. Its
leaflets are dark blue-green above, have toothed
margins and are pointed. The leaves alternate along
the stem. The mildly fragrant flowers are small,
woolly and lilac-coloured, with 5 petals surrounding
a purple tube. The flowers occur in spring in showy
clusters at the ends of branches. The fruits are oval
berries, changing from green to yellow, hanging
from long stalks. Eventually they become brownish
leathery seed capsules which will hang from the tree
throughout the leafless winter months.
Mature Height
Only in tropical parts it does become a tall tree.
Origin
Australia (Queensland, New South Wales), New
Guinea
Uses
Whole tree
It is extremely useful for street and park planting in
moderate or dry climate.
Notes
It is cold-hardy and drought-resistant and the berries
are poisonous to pigs.
Whilst this tree is considered unpopular by some
because of its seeds, White Cedar grows very
successfully in Burra, is long-lived and casts an
appropriate (and not heavy) shade. When flowering,
it is spectacular.
Flowers and seeds
22
Pinus halepensis
Aleppo Pine
Description
The evergreen Tree is pyramidal shaped when
young. With age it develops a rounded crown with
large limbs and very fine foliage texture. The trunk
with whitish silver bark in youth but becoming darker
and reddish, with clear fissures as the tree gets
older. The leaves are between 5 and 12 cm long,
thin, straight, olive-green needles arranged in pairs.
The flowers are not significant, small brown bundle
on branch terminals. The woody cones are brown,
broadly egg-shaped, stalked and unarmed.
Mature Height
Origin
Syria
Uses
Required for particularly hot dry conditions or for
seaside planting this species will probably succeed
where others fail.
Whole tree
Notes
The wood, sawdust and resins from various species
of pine can cause dermatitis in sensitive people.
Aleppo Pine is considered to be an environmental
weed in South Australia.
Cone and needles
23
Platanus x acerifolia
Plane Tree
Description
The tall growing tree is pyramidal shaped in youth. It
develops a spreading rounded crown with age
supported by a few, very large diameter branches.
The bark is patchy and very attractive and may be
the plants best ornamental attribute. These patches
range from creamy-white to olive-green. Large
sections of bark may be shed from the tree as it
grows older. The "maple-like" shaped leaves are
dark green in summer and turn yellow brown in
autumn. The flowers are not ornamentally important.
Usually the “ball-like” fruit is borne in pairs, hanging
from long, thin stalks during the winter.
Mature
Origin
Hybrid
Uses
It is very useful as street and park tree, tolerating
smoke and poor atmospheric conditions better than
any other suitable tree.

Prunus amygdalus
Almond
Description
The little, deciduous tree has a pale-brown, rugged
bark, and dividing into many spreading branches.
The leaves, which are borne on glandular petioles,
are 12 cm long, lanceolate, acuminate, thin,
serrated, bright light-green, and glandular near the
base. The flowers are moderately large, pink or
white, sessile, and in pairs, appearing before the
leaves. The fruit, a leathery, hoary drupe, with the
sarcocarp spontaneously cracking and dropping off
the putamen. The stone is oblong, or ovate, acute,
hard in various degrees, always rugged, and pitted
with irregular holes.

Uses
Both the sweet and bitter almonds are taken from
this tree, of which there are several varieties—the
sweet almond is obtained from the var. Dulcis, and
the bitter almond from the var. Amara (L).
Notes
P. amygdalus is drought and frost tender.
Almonds
25
Prunus cerasifera ‘Nigra’
Purple-leafed Plum
Description
Very ornamental round-headed bushy tree with
blackish-purple stems and young leaves red, turning
to deep purple when mature. The leaves are
contrasting dramatically with masses of pink flowers
from early to mid-spring and these are sometimes
followed by plum like red or yellowish fruits.
Mature Height
Origin
Western Asia
Uses
This superb small tree is one of the best colour
contrast plants for the garden. It will also form a
dense deciduous hedge and can be very effective if
mixed with Myrobalan Plum.
Notes
Prefers areas with cool to cold winters and good
summer rainfall, but is fairly adaptable, and can be
grown in warmer and drier regions.
Whole tree
Flowers in spring
26
Quercus robur
English Oak
Description
English oak is a majestic tree with a very wide
spreading crown, a short sturdy trunk, and deeply
fissured gray brown bark. It has small deciduous
leaves, 3-5 in (7.6-12.7 cm) long, with 3-7 pairs of
rounded lobes, and extremely short leaf stems. They
remain deep green long into autumn before turning
brown and then persisting on the tree well into
winter. The typical oak flowers are hanging catkins
which appear with the emerging leaves in early
spring. The acorns are elongate, about 1 in (2.5 cm)
long with a cup that covers 1/3 of the nut. They are
borne singly or in clusters of 2-5 which dangle on a
single long 1-4 in (5.1-10.2 cm) peduncle.
Mature Height
Origin
Europe, western Asia and northern Africa
Uses
Whole tree
English oak is used as a shade tree or a specimen
tree in larger landscapes.
Notes
There are several named subspecies and varieties,
and many selections of English oak, as well as
hybrids with other species, are offered in the trade.
Leaves
27
Schinus molle
Peppertree
Description
This evergreen tree is growing at a fast rate. It has a
moderately weeping form, and is single or
multistemmed. It is in leaf all year, in flower from
April to June. The small, whitish flowers occur in
bracteate panicles. Its clear green foliage, with
numerous lance-linear, sometimes accompanied by
cheerful clusters of rosy-red berry- like “peppers”,
make it a pleasure to look at.
Mature Height
Origin
Peru
Uses
For hot outback country, very drought resistant.
The dried and roasted berries are used as a pepper
substitute.
Notes
The scented flowers are deciduous (individual
flowers are either male or female, but only one sex
is to be found on any one plant so both male and
female plants must be grown if seed is required.

28
Ulmus procera
English Elm
Description
Ulmus procera forms an immense tree with a stout,
tall trunk, heavy ascending branches and a dense,
spreading canopy. The leaves are 5-6cm long, very
asymmetrical at the base, rough to touch above with
conspicuous parallel veins and serrated margins.
The small reddish flowers develop in the naked leaf
axils in early spring, followed by the showy, bright
green, winged and disc-like fruits.
Mature Height
Origin
United Kingdom and northwest Spain
Uses
The English Elms had been planted in the 17th and
18th century in England, usually as part of hedges
and land enclosures, as well as for their ornamental
and timber value.
Notes
Whole tree
A very big problem is a disease which is caused by
a fungus which, in turn, is spread by beetles. Trees
hit with the disease gradually wilt, turn yellow, and
die.

Catalpa bignonioides
Indian Bean Tree
Description
Catalpa bignonioides is an attractive small to
medium sized deciduous tree. It is of similar width
with a short trunk that supports a broad, open and
rounded crown. Catalpa has large tropical looking
heart-shaped leaves that are up to 20.3 cm long and
held oppositely on the stems. Often in a whorl with
three leaves emerging from the same point along
the stem. In spring the southern catalpa produces
showy branching flower clusters at the stem tips.
The white bell-shaped blossoms are 5.1 cm in
diameter and patterned with small purple spots and
two large orange markings at the throat. The flowers
are followed by long slender cigar-shaped pods. The
green pods ripen to brown in fall and split to release
flat fringed seeds.
Mature Height
Origin
Southern USA
Uses
Whole tree
It is a valued ornamental tree with large foliage and
showy clusters of flowers in the spring.
Notes
The Catalpa is the host plant for a caterpillar
commonly called the catawba worm. These are
popular fishing bait for southern freshwater fish
known as bream.
There are examples of this tree growing very
successfully in gardens in Burra.
Flower and leaves
31
Cedrus atlantica
Atlas Cedar
Description
Atlas Cedar is a large and majestic evergreen
conifer. This cedar is neatly cone shaped in youth,
becoming more open and spreading with a flat top
as it ages. The bark is silvery gray and fissured. The
stiff, needle like leaves are bluish green, less than
2.5 cm long and clustered in tufts on short lateral
spurs. The egg shaped cones are 7.6 cm long,
green while developing and brown when mature.
When ripe they shatter to release papery winged
seeds.
Mature Height
Origin
North Africa
Uses
It is long lived and needs lots of space and should
never be used as anything but a specimen or widely
spaced in groves so that its magnificent form can be
fully appreciated.
Notes
Whole tree
It grows fast and upward for the first 10-20 years,
then as the central leader loses dominance, growth
slows and the crown spreads.
Cedars grow well in Burra and are useful as a park
or garden tree, or in wide streets or as specimens.
Cones on branch
32
Eucalyptus leucoxylon subsp. leucoxylon
Yellow Gum
Description
Eucalyptus leucoxylon is a medium-sized tree. The
bark is retained on the lower trunk but the upper
trunk and branches are smooth-barked and cream

Robinia pseudoacacia ‘Frisia’
White Acacia
Description
Robinia pseudoacacia ‘Frisia’ is a fast-growing,
thorn less cultivar of the native deciduous locust.
The upright growth and short, irregular branches
cast light shade below the tree, allowing a lawn to
thrive. Dull, yellow leaves, made up of multiple
leaflets, are some of the last to appear in spring and
often drop early in the autumn, just barely fading to
a sickly yellow/green before dropping. For
approximately a 10-day period in late spring, the
trees are festooned with, dense clusters of
extremely fragrant, white blossoms (similar to sweetpeas) which are literally "alive" with the bustling
activity of visiting bees. The dark red to black,
leathery seeds pods which follow will persist on the
trees throughout the winter.
Mature Height
Origin
Western USA
Uses
Whole tree
This vigorous, broadly columnar tree makes an
excellent specimen for a sunny, suburban garden or
streets.
Notes
There are a variety of cultivars available, but the
most popular and best is ‘Frisia’ which has golden
yellow foliage that appears all the brighter with the
sun shining through it. Unlike most yellow leaved
plants, rather than getting darker and greener as the
season goes on, this one gets yellowier and brighter
right up to the autumn.
Leaves
37
Ulmus parvifolia
Chinese Elm
Description
Chinese Elm has the most beautiful bark - green,
grey, orange and brown mottled and flaking in small
thin plates. This is a handsome tree, often with a
trunk that forks and produces a vase shape. The
leaves are typical elm leaves - about 5.1 cm long,
elliptic, toothed, conspicuously veined and with
unequal bases. Chinese elm is tardily deciduous,
almost evergreen in mild climates. Most elms
produce their little winged "samaras" in the spring;
this one fruits in the fall. The samaras are flat and
papery, about 0.8 cm across and rather showy
hanging in dense clusters.
Whole tree
Mature Height
Origin
China, Japan and Korea
Uses
Most of the elms make great shade and avenue
trees, and Chinese elm is one of the best.
Notes
This is a highly variable species and there are many
cultivars in the trade, selected for form, size, bark
colour, cold hardiness and foliage characteristics.
