Havn't seen that done in a long time!

Clam trucks are alot more versatile, but hey the dump thing works - right scary though

Here's what Chinese Elms look like to me. I finally was in the right place to catch a shot.

Hey Roger, that one looks more like a Zelkova but I could be wrong.

 

[RogerM]

well...

...just snap a photo of a leaf from the tree, post it here and you'll get your answer as to wether or not it's a chinese elm (or siberian elm, rather).

Sorry Roger, I stand corrected. In looking at different pics of Lacebark Elm and Zelkova I would say your specimen looks a bit closer to the Lacebark.

 

[rich_h]

Here is the Zelkova.

Here in Southwestern Co. these Siberian Elms are frequently refered to as Chinese Elms. Which to me back in the home land of North Kaka _laki were the ones pictured in Rogers first shot.

Roger's picture is indeed a Lacebark Elm, AKA the Chinese elm - (Ulmus parvifolia). Siberian Elm - (Ulmus pumila) is also known as the Chinese elm in some locales, causing much confusion.
