Wych elm
The Wych elm (Ulmus glabra Huds.) is, or perhaps more accurately was, a large tree native to most of Europe, and in Britain, was the by far commonest Elm in the north and west of the country.
It is highly susceptible to Dutch elm disease and is now very rare over much of its range.
The cultivar 'Camperdown' was a popular small/medium size weeping tree for garden use.
