Wood Wecognition Wednesday: Elm

#woodrecognition #elm #woodidentification #wood

A short video on Identifying Ulmus Americana (American Elm) and some of it's common uses. Be sure to look out for the secret code and follow the competition rules at the end of the video to enter.

European elm is difficult to come by for most of the UK due to the mass culling of trees to beat dutch elm disease. Unfortunately, this infestation is seeing a resurgence and is putting american species at risk.
