cultivar = 'Fjerrestad'
origin = Sweden "Ulmus × hollandica" 'Fjerrestad' is one of a number of cultivars arising from the crossing of the Wych Elm "U. glabra" with a variety of Field Elm "U. minor". First mentioned in "Meded. Comite. Best. Iepenz." 13: 9, 1933, but without description [Green, P. S. (1964). Registration of cultivar names in Ulmus. "Arnoldia", Vol. 24. Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University. [http://arnoldia.arboretum.harvard.edu/pdf/articles/1605.pdf] ] . ]Cultivation
No details of the clone's commercial cultivation survive. It is worth noting that all the elms in the conservation area [http://www.kristianstad.snf.se/n2000/0430067.htm] at Fjerrestad have succumbed to Dutch elm disease.
Etymology
The clone is named for the village of Fjärrestad in Skåne between Landskrona and Helsingborg, Sweden.
Hybrid cultivars
'Fjerrestad' was crossed with "Ulmus × hollandica" and "U. minor" subsp. "minor" in the Dutch elm breeding programme before World War II, but none of the progeny were of particular note and were discarded. [Went, J. A. (1954).
