Zelkova schneideriana, also known as Chinese Zelkova, Jumu, Schneider's Zelkova, or Southern Elm, is a majestic tree that can grow up to 35 meters tall with a diameter at breast height of up to 80 cm. Its exfoliating bark is colored grayish brown to dark gray, while its young branchlets are densely covered with grayish white pubescence. This easily grown plant can thrive in almost any good soil, regardless of acidity or alkalinity, as long as it is deep, well-drained, and moist. Though it prefers a moderately sheltered position, it is relatively shade tolerant and a fast growing tree. Its high-quality timber is resistant to decay, and the fiber from its bark is used for manufacturing ropes and paper. Overall, Zelkova schneideriana is an elegant addition to any landscape, making it a perfect choice for gardeners and landscapers alike.
