American Elm vs Discovery Japanese ElmUlmus americana Ulmus davidiana var. japonica Discovery SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
American Elm is fast growing, tall tree with a recognizable and pleasing shape. Discovery Japanese Elm is great for anyone who doesn't have a lot of time to maintain their trees as it doesn't drop many seeds. It has beautiful dark green foliage and is resistant to Dutch Elm Disease. This elm is similar in shape to the American Elm but is roughly 30% smaller. Instead of having an irregular and broad-shaped crown as other Japanese Elms do, the Discovery Japenses Elm has symmetrical branching, an upright growth form, and develops a classic vase-like crown.
