Village Green® Japanese Zelkova is a robust selection with faster growth than other members of the species. Relatively carefree, it is resistant to pests and diseases including Dutch elm disease and is adaptable to variable soils and pH. Ideal as an urban shade tree or street tree, it will tolerate brief periods of drought once established but grows best with regular water.
