Triumph™ Elm
Ulmus 'Morton Glossy'
Strong, upright branching and a medium texture make Triumph easy to train and much more attractive as a young tree, compared to other elms. As the tree matures, softly arching branches are perfect for parkway and municipal plantings. Triumph also boasts excellent disease and pest resistance along with good drought tolerance.
