Siberian Elm vs Eastern Red CedarUlmus pumila Juniperus virginiana ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
Siberian Elm is a small to medium-sized deciduous tree. It has a similar form to American Elm, but smaller, with a more pyramidal habit and shorter lifespan. It is also more resistant to Dutch Elm disease and is very salt tolerant.
Eastern Red Cedar is native to eastern Canada and is actually a variety of juniper, not cedar. Its pyramidal crown, low hanging branches, and dense, compact foliage makes it an ideal windbreak or shelterbelt tree. SIBERIAN ELM QUICK FACTSEASTERN RED CEDAR QUICK FACTS
