Tree in my garden (i think)

mracer · 30th June 2010, 07:33 AM

Hi all,

Trying to identify a new found tree that has started to grow in the garden,

It looks like a pretty basic tree, shouldn't be too hard, it is hardwood so I think it is a tree not a plant,

Thanks in advance for taking the time to have a look,

Paul (MrAcer)

An Elm probably a sucker from the one over the fence

Fantastic thanks!

It's strange because the leaves seem a little different to the one over the fence

Leaves often look a bit different on immature plants. I'd got with the Elm ID.

It is likely a Scots Elm. Elms freely hybridize, so slight variations are quite common.
