Regenerative White Elm

Some of the small trees beside the field in this view are White Elm aka American Elm (Ulmus americana). People in Quebec (and much of North America) were very fond of this species, so that nearly every field had at least a few large elms. But Dutch Elm Disease (DED) arrived in Quebec by 1944, and over the next 50 years almost all mature specimens died. Fortunately, White Elm produces seed at a young age. Even in the presence of disease, enough trees live long enough to reproduce and so saplings such as these are fairly common. But the days of whole streets and parks shaded by huge elms are over except in parts of the southern USA (where DED doesn't seem to be too bad) and cities outside the native range which have not yet seen DED.
